I should mention that I am sware of FORGE. But what FORGE can do
is still pretty limited. From what I read from their manual, it doesn't
seem that it translate FORTRAN code into MPL call, rather it translate
into calls using FORGE library. This will not be
good if you want to hand tune it later. Am I right?
