Prior to version 0.5.23, g77 would sometimes ignore
the absence of `f77' and `F77' in the
`LANGUAGES' macro definition used for the
make command being processed.
As of version 0.5.23, g77 now obeys this macro
in all relevant situations.
However, in versions of gcc through 2.8.1,
non-g77 portions of gcc,
such as g++,
are known to go ahead and perform various
language-specific activities when their
respective language strings do not appear
in the `LANGUAGES' macro in effect
during that invocation of make.
It is expected that these remaining problems will
be fixed in a future version of gcc.
