 Agreed, and then there is the Netlib Java numerical analysis code --
 That one gave be indigestion...

 One of the biggest problems is that no one wants rewrite linpack, blas,
 etc., not that it has been polished within an inch of the developers
 lives.

 As for FORTRAN, I thought about looking into the old f2c, and see how
 that worked for getting some FORTRAN compiled in Plan 9 as a
 demonstration.  I'll think about linuxemu in this context.
