It did require substantial effort to keep the interfaces synchronized, 
and I pretty much abandoned the effort with the switch to the product 
distribution model where the compilers came with the distribution. I was 
using a modified version of gfort to generate the interlanguage 
interfaces, and this was obviously not the version going out with the 
release. Nor was I seeing that much interest in the interface.
