I have converted this little program with f2c (newest version from netlib)
and subsequently compiled it with djgpp v2. This worked without problems.
Did you use the libf2c.a (or libi77.a and libf77.a) which were compiled with
v1.12? This might be the cause of the problem. Recompiling doesn't take very
long (an hour or so on a 386).
