Subject:	f2c library errors

I, too, have been trying to port f2c to DOS.  The error I see is that
with the libI77 source as delivered from netlib, _open and _close are
unsatisfied.  The reason for this is (as T. Porwol and others have noted)
is that "open" is redefined as "_open" in libI77 in rawio.h.  HOWEVER,
if I #undef open in open.c OR if I turn off the #def open _open in
rawio.h, then I get execution errors when I try to open a file,
either with the explicit Fortran open statement or implicitly with
a write(1... statement.  If I #undef MSDOS in rawio.h, then read and
write are multiply defined.

I am not a C programmer or a DOS wizard.  I would appreciate any help anyone
can give.
