The changes that I had to make for the Domain OS on the Apollos was very
minimal.  I had to change only 'configure' and create 'fortran/domainos.m4'.
I also changed 'CUSTOMIZE' for our site.  DomainOS allows you to specify either 
BSD or SYSV as
the operating system.  We use BSD.  If you use SYSV you may need to make
different changes.  Most of the changes to configure involve specifying
the path for 'uname'.  It is available from SYSV but not BSD.
If you encounter any problems, feel free to contact me again.
