Inmos are producing their own Fortran compiler, and I believe that is an
extended version; it certainly goes beyond F77, and may be milspec. 
However, the compiler can't handle the records and data structures which
many of us have been using in VAX Fortran, and that makes porting your
10^n lines of code a bit tricky. ( I know, because they've already made
an attempt at ours. )

ALL IS NOT LOST!  I believe that there is still time to get Inmos to
upgrade the specification of their Fortran.  If you have made use of the
VAX extensions to Fortran, and would like to be able to port your code,
then write to Stephen Doyle at Inmos, Bristol, or get in touch with your
local office or distributor explaining why you need data structures and
records.  Given the other platforms capable of handling VAX code, Inmos
would be plain daft not to provide potential customers with a path for
porting their favourite programs.
