My understanding, USE flag was there and had been for a long time, got 
changed, this thread was started, discussion was had, USE flag was put 
back the way it was.  So actually it was only not working while I was 
messing with it.  That would be true ONLY if you were using the 
defaults.  If you had -fortran then nothing should have changed as would 
having fortran enabled.  It was only folks like me that didn't have any 
mention of fortran that were affected.

Just one of those things.  ;-)   As someone else posted, this was minor 
compared to some things we have ran into.
