We have standardized our array handling with F90, and I don't think we will
go back
to supporting new things for F77-style arrays.

That being said, I think all you have to do is compile that source with an
F90 compiler. You
should not have to change anything. If you want the F90 array to look like
an F77 array,
just pass it as a function argument (I think this works).

  Thanks,
