In principle g77 should work in any configuration for which gcc itself
will.  However, there are definite problems on OSF/1 Alphas, at least,
and probably other 64-bit systems.  g77 may also tickle backend bugs
on some other systems, possibly rs/6000 AIX.

g77 installation is certainly fine on SPARC-ish 2.4 with the current
versions.  Perhaps a bug report of the problem would be in order.
