After some false starts, we (mostly) successfully compiled CCP4 5.0.2 on
a system running SUSE Linux 10.0.  It required a few tweaks:

(1) Obviously, avoid the radical new gfortran compiler that is the
default for SUSE 10.0.  Install the compat-g77 package instead to use
g77 3.3.5.  Note that this prevents use of the SUSE BLAS/LAPACK
libraries, which require gfortran, so the LAPACK included with CCP4 has
to be used.

(2) setenv XCFLAGS "-DG77 -DPROTOTYPE"; otherwise the "-DHAVE_G2C_H"
flag gets added by configure, which causes the build to fail.

(3) The "--disable-pdb_extract" configure flag is necessary, as GCC is
still haunted by post-3.3.* issues.  Alas, no non-g77 compatibility
packages are currently available.

Apologies if this simply recapitulates someone else's findings for
Gentoo/Fedora/Darwin/Vista.
