A while ago some users asked if a f90 is available fro Cygwin.
This message is for your information.

Portland Group released recently the PGI workstation which contains C/C++
F77/F90 and HPF (High Performance Fortran) and also MP (multi processor
options), which is compatible with Cygwin-B20.1.  It is based upon my
experience.

The PGI offers the following compability with Cygwin

* -Munix - (NT only) use UNIX-style argument passing and symbol naming
conventions. In particular, C symbols are pre-pended with an underscore
and Fortran symbols have underscores pre-pended and appended. This
option is useful for porting mixed Fortran/C applications from UNIX to NT
with a minimum of effort.

* -cyglibs - (NT only) link against the Cygnus libraries and use the Cygnus
include files. You must have Cygwin32 installed in order to use this switch.

* -mslibs - (NT only) use the Microsoft linker and include files, and link
against the Microsoft Visual C++ libraries. Microsoft Visual C++ must be
installed in order to use this switch.

* -msvcrt - (NT only) use Microsoft's msvcrt.dll at runtime rather than
the default crtdll.dll.
