Thanks for the reply.

I don't know exactly how they built this library, but somehow they
internalized the FORTRAN function names so that they are not exported by
the FORTRAN objects (e.g. currstep in currstep.o), while a dangling
reference exists to them in the C wrapper object (e.g. currstepc.o):

Symbols from currstep.o:

  [Index]  Value Size  Class  Type               Section    Name

  [0]     |    0|   |File    |ref=16               |Text     | /tmp_mnt/pub/storage/xcc/work/m3io/currstep.f
  [1]     |    0|   |Proc    |end=15 unsigned long |Text     | currstep_
->[2]     |   -8|   |Local   |unsigned long        |Abs      | currstep

  [Index]            Class    Type               Section    Name
                 
  [0]     |    0|   |File    |ref=15               |Text     | /tmp_mnt/pub/storage/xcc/work/m3io/currstepc.c
  [1]     |    0|   |Proc    |end=14 int           |Text     | currstepc
  [13]    |  420|   |End     |ref=1                |Text     | currstepc
->[101]   |    0|   |Proc    |                     |Undefined| currstep


If one links with and calls any of these wrappers (e.g. currstepc()), it
works fine.
