Ehm...

Not knowing squat about Fortran, I have not the slightest idea what 
you're talking about, nor what your problem is..
I'm tempted to say http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html or 
perhaps http://cygwin.com/problems.html

Could you perhaps post a minimalist test case that shows the problem 
(i.e. a Fortran source file, a Makefile and whatnot so I can simply type 
`make' and have the problem occur?)

As I said, I don't know *anything* about Fortran, but if your problem is 
really with Bash, I'll be happy to help..
