Re: g77-3.4

[Nicholas Materer <materer@okstate.edu>]

I was asked to forward this bug to Andreas Jochens.

the amd64 and the i386 (filed a bug with debian) suffer from the 
Bugzilla Bug 17541
[g77] data statements with double precision constants fail

The fix is here:
http://gcc.gnu.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/gcc/gcc/f/Attic/bld.c.diff?r1=1.16.14.1&r2=1.16.14.2&f=h

Thanks 
Nick

Please forward patch and description of this problem to our gcc 3.4
guru - Andreas Jochens <aj@andaco.de>.  I'm certain he will happily
apply any patches that fix gcc 3.4 toolchain faults.
