It looks like this problem was due to f2c trying to write into a
string constant.  A quick fix is to compile with the
-fwritable-strings flag.  A better fix would be to find all the
places where f2c wants to write over its strings and redeclare
the variables appropriately.

Thanks to Steven Boker for this suggestion.
