From: Richard Basch <probe@MIT.EDU>
Finally, I have picked up the latest hf77 compiler from ibmsupt (it took
the new device driver to be able to do it, and I have already sent
pointers to this code in a previous message to bugs).
This distribution is a binary-only (Metaware compiler). It currently
resides in odie:~uucp/hf77.tar.Z.
There are library changes, but since we build the libraries from source,
I do not think it is appropriate that we grab that...
Enclosed is the original announcement from IBM:
Subject: Fortran hf77 12.1 available IBM/4.3
Index: See below.
There is a new distribution of the optimizing fortran compiler "hf77".
The distribution is available as a compress tar image on "ibmsupt" as
/usr/spool/uucppublic/ibm43-fixes/hf77_12.1_tar.Z (628233 bytes,
20410 checksum).
This file contains the binaries making up the optimizing fortran
compiler and the associated fortran libraries.
README This file which describes the release.
bin/
hf77 - the optimizing fortran compiler driver.
lib/
hf77pass1 - pass1 of the fortran compiler
hf77passq - the fortran Portable Code Optimizer (PCO)
hf77pass2 - pass2 of the fortran compiler
hf77copt - the copt peephole optimizer
libF77.a - the fortran library
libF77_p.a - the profiled fortran library
BUGS FIXED
The problem of a page fault occuring with the AFPA card has been
fixed. This affects only fortran programs which generate direct
floating point instructions (-f and -f2 switches).
Some routines which were missing from libF77.a are now present.
