I built this too a couple months ago, using gcc in fortran mode.
Only problem I had was the 'time' function to measure the simulation run time.
Its not in the gcc intrinsic lib, so I just stubbed it out.
My version was 2g.6

I hope to eventually be able to run this on
my real System/370 at the
new building in PA.
Be very interested in seeing the results from this on real hardware.
When I ran Spice II under VM/370R6 I got slightly different results to
the sample print outs provided. I know it was one digit in the last
place so could just be normal floating point jitter, on the other hand
it could be something in the Hercules floating point code not adding
enough guard bytes. Any comment
It's easily many months off, but when I do bring up that machine, I'm
sure I'll inform (i.e., "brag to" ;)) everyone here.
