Known Bugs In GNU Fortran
*************************
This section identifies bugs that `g77' *users* might run into in
version {No Value For "version-g77"} of `g77'. This includes bugs that
are actually in the `gcc' back end (GBE) or in `libf2c', because those
sets of code are at least somewhat under the control of (and
necessarily intertwined with) `g77', so it isn't worth separating them
out.

For information on bugs in *other* versions of `g77', see
`egcs/gcc/f/NEWS'. There, lists of bugs fixed in various versions of
`g77', can help determine what bugs existed in prior versions.
*Warning:* The information below is still under development, and
might not accurately reflect the `g77' code base of which it is a part.
Efforts are made to keep it somewhat up-to-date, but they are
particularly concentrated on any version of this information that is
distributed as part of a *released* `g77'.
In particular, while this information is intended to apply to the
EGCS-1.2 version of `g77', only an official *release* of that version
is expected to contain documentation that is most consistent with the
`g77' product in that version.
An online, "live" version of this document (derived directly from
the mainline, development version of `g77' within `egcs') is available
via `http://egcs.cygnus.com/onlinedocs/g77_bugs.html'. Follow the
