No news group.  The g77 documentation includes information on
what mailing lists, newsgroups, and other on-line resources
exist to help g77 and Fortran users, though not all.

There is almost *no* useful information on the problem here.  I
have only one guess: if you're running on an Alpha and not
compiling with -mieee, try that.

Really, read the g77 docs.  In general, it's a *very* good idea to
read the documentation for any product you're using.  Of course,
many of us (myself including) don't always do that.  But it's at
least good form to give it a try before posting a message to the
entire world asking for help!
