I don't know of many compilers, let alone translators, which support '90.

Historically, the ANSI-90 FORTRAN was rejected by most major vendors,
either due to a lack of backward compatability or conflicts with vendor
extensions (depending on the vendor); it was rejected by Harris, DEC,
HP, and IBM... dunno if Sun was involved at all.

The differences are significant enought that you will probably have to
do a fair bit of work to hack the most recent 386BSD translator (ftp'able
from ref.tfs.com).
