Full Support for Compiler Types
-------------------------------

   `g77' doesn't support `INTEGER', `REAL', and `COMPLEX' equivalents
for *all* applicable back-end-supported types (`char', `short int',
`int', `long int', `long long int', and `long double').  This means
providing intrinsic support, and maybe constant support (using F90
syntax) as well, and, for most machines will result in automatic
support of `INTEGER*1', `INTEGER*2', `INTEGER*8', maybe even `REAL*16',
and so on.  This is scheduled for version 0.6.
