I was wondering if it is possible to tell gxx to not mangle the names of
certain functions?  I've been trying to interface some of my C++ code with
some fortran code I downloaded of the net.  g77 mangles its function names
by adding _'s to start and finish (so foo becomes _foo_).  But gxx mangles
the same function to _foo__*** (*** = annoying junk) - which stops the .o
files from linking correctly!

I know that you can get around this using a hex editor, but this is very 
slow (multiple .o files affected).  Is there another way?
