   The DUNGEON that was available under BSD UNIX was a shell that ran the
   PDP-11 run-time on the DEC VAX in PDP-11 CPU mode.    It was much later
   that some thread of the FORTRAN code was converted into C.    

Well, that explains the lack of f77-acceptable fortran.  Is the C code
available anywhere?  Have you seen it?
