   I'm positive that GCC 2.953 was recompiled (late 2001) for "Win2k fixes".   
   But checking the file dates of G77 doesn't seem to imply the same thing.   
   It may not work (by default). Not sure. Maybe they didn't care enough   
   to recompile anything but C/C++? Ugh. Not sure about CWS' third-party   
   patch tool (maybe that would help?).   
      
   You may have to use G77302B.ZIP or even G77303B.ZIP instead, not sure.   
   (I know you don't care, just trying to be exhaustive here.)   
      
   Or it may actually be a better idea to use latest DJDEV205, aka 2.05,   
   and its single G77 recompile (3.4.6):

   djdev205.zip
