Binary files on 4D machines

[Brent L. Bates AAD/TAB MS361 x42854]

    We already tried what the FORTRAN release notes say, and it
doesn't work all the time.  We have a person who made a VERY short
program to read a file that worked, but when they tried to do
the same thing in their real program it doesn't work.
    It doesn't seem that much thought went into the "fix".
If they were going to really fix this they should have kept the
same syntax as what is used on the 3000's.
