Dan,

getarg and iargc for Fortran90 appear in libfortran.  The actual entry
points are named "getarg_" and "iargc_".  These are wrappers around the
calls to the c routines.  These are part of 0.13 Pro64 release.  They were
not part of earlier releases which is why you would have had problems
prior to yesterday's release.

This wrapper technique is how lots of other common "c language" functions
are implemented.

And sorry to burst your bubble about IRIX and getarg.  It works EXACTLY
the same as in Pro64.  There is a wrapper.  The wrapper is in a library.
And the library is automatically linked in by the f90 command.
