I think LAPACK + BLAS would be very much faster, with tuned BLAS on a
per-architecture basis, than this translated version.

 Even if f2cl did a super-efficient job of translation. 

Of course if the effort is modest and it results in functionally "correct"
and useful programs, that is a plus. It also shakes down f2cl some more.
