we recently upgraded our Alpha8400 from 4.0E to 4.0G. I also installed
the latest version of f77 (that came with 5.1 disks) after making sure
it was backward compatible. most programs run fine but one didn't - it
worked fine in 4.0E but now creates segmentation fault error. Also a
code that is a mix of fortran and c (f77 calling c code) after
recompilation creates error:
forrtl: severe (174): SIGSEGV, segmentation fault occurred
   0: _call_remove_gp_range [0x3ff81a6c374]
   1: _call_remove_gp_range [0x3ff81a74a00]
   2: _call_remove_gp_range [0x3ff800d9040]
   3: _call_remove_gp_range [0x3ff800da648]
   4: aacomp_ [0x120003398]
   5: main$cell_ [cell.f: 59, 0x120002424]
   6: main [for_main.c: 203, 0x120003c54]
   7: __start [0x120001ff8]
But if I run same code, compiled on older version of OS, on the 4.0G
system it works.
Here are listed fortran packages:
