Well, it doesn't *have* to.  System integrators could just as well build
the MPI libraries with g77 [other-options] -fno-second-underscore ... to
prevent this effect.

Of course, *then* they have to tell g77 users of their systems to _also_
use this option when compiling stuff that needed MPI libs.
