: Dear blackhole:

I'm sorry I didn't answer your previous message sooner -- I'm just one
guy and don't always have time to respond to each bug reports, though I
certainly do pay attention to all of them.

: There seems to be a problem with the Makefile in ./libcruft. The
: make log file indicates it's archiving FORTRAN source whose behavior
: appears to be governed by the following lines in ./libcruft/Makefile 

Yes.  This will be fixed in 0.72.  Here's the ChangeLog entry and the
new code for libcruft/Makefile.in is appended below.

        * libcruft/Makefile.in (CRUFT_OBJ): Strip $(srcdir)/ and convert
        from .f to .o in two steps since some versions of GNU make strip
        the leading ./ from the output of $(wildcard), causing my pattern
        match to fail if compiling in the source tree.

libcruft/Makefile.in
::::::::::::::::::::
# List of the directories that contain Fortran source.  Simply copying
# a new .f file into one of these directories is sufficient to have it
# added to libcruft.a.  If you add a new directory here, you also need
# generate a new configure script (edit configure.in and run autoconf).

CRUFT_DIRS = blas dassl fftpack fsqp lapack linpack minpack misc \
        npsol odepack qpsol quadpack ranlib villad

SUBDIRS = $(CRUFT_DIRS)

DISTFILES = Makefile.in Makerules.in $(SOURCES)

all: make-objects ../libcruft.a
.PHONY: all

make-objects:
        for dir in $(SUBDIRS); do echo making all in $$dir; cd $$dir; $(MAKE) $(
MDEFINES) all; cd ..; done
.PHONY: make-objects

CRUFT_FSRC = $(foreach dir, $(SUBDIRS), $(wildcard $(srcdir)/$(dir)/*.f))
CRUFT_OBJ3 = $(patsubst $(srcdir)/%, %, $(CRUFT_FSRC))
CRUFT_OBJ2 = $(patsubst %.f, %.o, $(CRUFT_OBJ3))
CRUFT_OBJ1 = $(subst misc/d1mach.o, , $(CRUFT_OBJ2))
CRUFT_OBJ = $(CRUFT_OBJ1) misc/d1mach.o

../libcruft.a: $(CRUFT_OBJ)
        rm -f ../libcruft.a
        $(AR) $(ARFLAGS) ../libcruft.a $(CRUFT_OBJ)
        $(RANLIB) ../libcruft.a

$(CRUFT_OBJ):


The reason I don't just do this:

: CRUFT_FSRC = $(foreach dir, $(SUBDIRS), $(wildcard $(srcdir)/$(dir)/*.o))

is so that we get some kind of message if there is an error compiling
some of the .o files.

Thanks,
