Those Fortran files are "for the record" only; they are not compiled.
The corresponding Lisp translations (via f2cl) are actually used.
The Lisp translations were created once and committed to cvs;
they are not regenerated at build time.
Maybe if we ever get a foreign function interface, we could use
the Fortran programs directly, but that's not the case at present.
