Is there an easy way to do this without duplicating storage?
For the moment I'd like to do input into COMMONs using existing f77 routines
and have the data magically appear in C externals, although I can imagine
wanting to do the reverse sometime....

I suppose I could do this simply by calling an f77 routine from C and returning
the COMMON data into C externals, but this would involve a duplication of 
storage....
