I think it is cobyla test that hangs here. The reason is that gcc 
over-optimizes trstlp function in cobyla causing infinite loop, with no 
optimization this test passes ok.
Also, I thought I have fixed it in CVS (try rebuilding everything from 
scratch). Now it works ok with gcc 3.3.3 here. What g77 version are you 
using?
