* Hi,
* 
* I'm about to compile a very old, very ugly Fortran program.
* For one part I got:
* 
* f77: Internal compiler error: program f771 got fatal signal 6
* 
* instead of any detailed error message. I was able to break down the
* problem to the following source fragment:
* 
* -------------------------------------------
        PROGRAM WAP

        integer*2  ios
        character*80  name

        name = 'blah'
        open(unit=8,status='unknown',file=name,form='formatted',
     F       iostat=ios)

      END
* -------------------------------------------
* 
* The problem seems to be caused by the "integer*2 ios" declaration.
* So far I solved it by simply using a plain integer instead.
* 
* I'm running gcc on a Linux system compiled/installed
* with no special options:
* 
* -> g77 -v
