Comment (by eschnett):
Without this option, xlc uses the same name space for C and Fortran, requiring people to choose different names for C and Fortran routines. Most people won't expect this. C/Fortran interoperability is only a vaguely defined topic, and having to use a particular compiler option should not be much of an issue.
In particular, since C/Fortran interoperability is rather new, Cactus defined its own mechanism for this.
