@ -4713,15 +4713,14 @@ With many compilers, the Fortran libraries detected by
function that initializes things like Fortran I/O, and which then calls
a user-provided entry function named e.g. @code{MAIN__} to run the
user's program. The @code{AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN} or @code{AC_F77_MAIN}
macros figure out how to deal with this interaction.
macro figures out how to deal with this interaction.
When using Fortran only for purely numerical functions (no I/O,
etcetera), users often prefer to provide their own @code{main} and skip
the Fortran library initializations. In this case, however, one may
still need to provide a dummy @code{MAIN__} routine in order to prevent
linking errors on some systems. @code{AC_F77_DUMMY_MAIN} detects
whether any such routine is @emph{required} for linking, and what its
name is.
