Tony,

I've only built GEMPAK with SUN's C and F77 packages for solaris.
I have built GEMPAK with gcc and g77 for Linux, so you should be
able to build with that environment....but the GEMPRM.$NA_OS file
will have to be changed since g77 doesn't support functions in
parameter statements.

If you have g77 and gcc installed, I can help you with configuring the
fortran header file.
