 Gnu fortran 77 is in late alpha test, and (last I heard) was scheduled to
 go to beta before the end of the year. It is based on gcc.
 Myself, and at least one other on this list, are among the alpha testers.
 I have successfully run several versions of MOPAC through g77 (alpha),
 in addition to several tens of thousands of lines of code from other
 programmes.  In general, I have found g77 to be in pretty good shape,
 although the rapidly shrinking list of problems does include a couple
 seemingly specific to SGI - all with easy workarounds.
 If your code does not involve anything proprietary, I would be happy to
 run it through g77 (alpha) and let you know what to expect.
 Am posting to the list as the status info might be of wider scale interest.
