The Sun 3 and Sun 4 machines both give me the following result of the
"Branch illegally into DO-Loop" test program.

f77 -ansi goof.f
f77 -ansi -O goof.f
(Either compiles with no warnings)

Both run and produce the output:

0      0
1      1
2      4

etc.

This seems odd, since the Sun f77 "compiler" is trying to support VMS
extensions. It should therefore have behavior similar to that found
previously on VMS machines.

The only good UNIX fortran compiler is a dead UNIX fortran compiler.

Andrew Mullhaupt,
