This looks like a bug in g77. The small code below will write the
number in D format on an SGI, but uses the E format under DJGPP/G77.
It writes the number as a double precision number, but the output is
.1000000020E+01

c234567
      implicit none 
      double precision x
c
      x=1.00000002d0
      write(*,100) x
 100  format(d20.10)
c
      end

I'm using DJGPP 2.01 and g77 0.5.19 from the simtel site.
