Hmmm ... it's been years since I've used, but from what I remember, it
should be pretty trivial to use with gcc/g77 on Windows32. I believe the
magic was to define -Df2cFortran (or something like that) and the rest
just worked.

One potential gotcha, and only applicable if you're using gcc/c++ as the
link driver instead of using g77, is that f77 runtime library bundled with 
g77 has been renamed from libf2c.a to libg2c.a, and so you'll need to link
with -lg2c instead of -lf2c. 

  
  $ gcc -Df2cFortran -c cfile.c
  $ g77 -c ffile.f
  $ gcc -o mixedprog ffile.o cfile.o -lg2c

What problems have you had?
