Yes. I get tons of them during a make command.

According to their documentation, .fpp is not a valid extension, so
maybe they default to g77 in this case. They use .F for preprocessed
FORTRAN. If I use .F, then I get a usage error (for -E).
I use this macro to determine if I am using the Absoft compiler:
AC_DEFUN(APS_PROG_F77_ABSOFT,
[AC_CACHE_CHECK(whether we are using ABSOFT Fortran 77, ac_cv_prog_f77_absoft,
[cat > conftest.f <<EOF
program test
end
EOF
if AC_TRY_COMMAND($F77 conftest.f) | egrep Absoft >/dev/null 2>&1; then
ac_cv_prog_f77_absoft=yes
else
ac_cv_prog_f77_absoft=no
fi
rm -f a.out
