My basic understanding is this:
1. The "old" version of the fortran library (<=4.2) was just a wrapper
1a. The F90 interface was a wrapper for the fortran library.
2. Later versions can utilize the fortran 03 library which is a (to my
understanding) complete interface to the c library using F03 standard
interface operability, so here it is not a wrapper.
2a. If not compiled against the F03 std it is very similar (if not
totally?) to the older versions.
