New submission from Peter Jones <pjones0 at hughes.net>:

I am user 11943. OS is Windows Vista Ultimate. I have followed the instructions on how to use f2py and get this error when I try it (is this a known bug? It appears that there is bug in f2py):

C:\Python26\Scripts>python f2py.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "f2py.py", line 3, in <module>
    import f2py2e
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\f2py2e\__init__.py", line 10, in <module>
    import f2py2e
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\f2py2e\f2py2e.py", line 26, in <module>
    import crackfortran
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\f2py2e\crackfortran.py", line 1586
    as=b['args']
     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

I have also tried the example to create a fortran module for python and get this error:

C:\Python26\Scripts>python f2py.py -c --fcompiler=gnu95 --compiler=mingw32 -lmsvcr71 -m cep cep.for

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "f2py.py", line 3, in <module>
    import f2py2e
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\f2py2e\__init__.py", line 10, in <module>
    import f2py2e
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\f2py2e\f2py2e.py", line 26, in <module>
    import crackfortran
  File "C:\Python26\lib\site-packages\f2py2e\crackfortran.py", line 1586
    as=b['args']
     ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Additionally I use the Lahey/Fujitsu 95 compiler. Do I just replace the gnu95 with lahey? 
Also Is the msvrc71.dll file the correct one to use? I use MSVC VS 2009, which uses msvc90.dll. Should I use it instead?
