Bug#290102: g77-3.3: Please recompile with MXUNIT in fio.h increased to >= 1000



Package: g77-3.3
Version: 1:3.3.5-6
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

Through no fault of my own :-) I have to deal with FORTRAN code that uses
very large UNIT numbers (up to 750) when opening files.  According to
src/libf2c/libI77/README.netlib, this can be done by increasing the value
of MXUNIT in fio.h in the same source directory and recompiling.  Is there
any reason not to increase this value to (say) 1000 in the Debian binary
packages?
