This looks like a source of problem for cbdsqr.f. Compiles Ok with
binaries from g770523b.zip (see DJGPP distribution). I put 
stubedit'ing f771.exe (minstack=1536k) in Makefile when building
gcc and g77 for DJGPP (WARNING: only when installing gcc and g77).

For BLAS there still is problem with cherk.f, which does not compile
with optimizations enabled. I submitted this as bug report together
with stack trace and source and got following back:

This looks like a known problem arising from `cmplx(zero)'.  You can
avoid the problem by compiling with the option `-fno-emulate-complex'.

[Craig: this should be in g77.plan.]
------------------------------------------------------------

However I'm not going to do much work with DJGPP port of g77 as
I'm using it rather seldom (much less than C++)
