@code{g77} now treats @samp{%LOC(@var{expr})} and
@samp{LOC(@var{expr})} as ``ordinary'' expressions
when they are used as arguments in procedure calls.
This change applies only to global (filewide) analysis,
making it consistent with
how @code{g77} actually generates code
for these cases.
Previously, @code{g77} treated these expressions
as denoting special ``pointer'' arguments
for the purposes of filewide analysis.

The @code{g77} driver now ensures that @samp{-lg2c}
is specified in the link phase prior to any
