Possible Fortran Xlib conflict

I have recently been moving my graphics code to Silicon Graphics
machines, I have tried this on several all running the latest OS
version.  The code is all written in FORTRAN with the exception
of some routines in C which make calls to Xlib.  This all works
well on my DECstation, but when I run the code on SG machines after
calling the X initialization routines the FORTRAN I/O routines
have a wierd bug.  The first newline character for each formatted
WRITE is missing.

My question is has anyone else seen this?  I can't find any errors
in my code but it is entirely possible that I am doing something
to overwrite a flag.  This occurs in several programs where the same
graphics package is used and I am worried that there is some sort of
conflict between the C and FORTRAN runtime routines.
