I'll add only two things:

1.  It is non-trivial.  It took me a week to figure everything out the last
time around (ca. 1992), only to discover that a fortran compiler is not
cool any more (so I deleted it.)
2.  It is possible.  It took me a week, but I did manage to compile the
library, and then compiled fortran programs out of it.
3.  Most of my time was spent on figuring out what system I was on (BSD or
SYSV).
