This is compiler-specific.  Check the documentation for the Fortran compiler
you are using.  Compaq Fortran documents this in the User Manual (or
Programmer's Guide) chapter on mixed-language programming.  Note that for
multi-platform compilers (such as Compaq Fortran), the interface may vary by
platform.  (For example, on OpenVMS, Compaq Fortran uses the OpenVMS calling
standard "class NCA" descriptor.)
