I sent in an updated f2c package today (via send-pr).  f77 has been
renamed as f2c-f77 as you suggested. I also fixed the -o bug in f2c-f77
along with some others.

I also added this option.

If you need or want the changes before they make it into the official
collection, they are at
http://www-mtl.mit.edu/~mcmahill/netbsd/f2c-19980516p1-pkgsrc.tar.gz
and the distfile is at
http://www-mtl.mit.edu/~mcmahill/netbsd/f2c-19980516p1.tar.gz

they'll stay there until I get a notice that my send-pr has been accepted.

Thanks for the suggestions and help on this.
