A couple of users here are using the new fortran compiler, and seem
happy with it (so far).  Having played with the old VAX FORT, and
porting a program which links in lots of C modules, I was initially
unhappy to hear that there was a risc fort coming.  The fact that
it uses the ultrix linker was good news to me.
