The GNU Compiler Collection (GCC) supports VMS on Alpha and also 
ia64-hp-openvms. This includes gfortran. However, you probably have to 
compile GCC yourself. You need the current GCC 4.8 as it contains some 
fixes for VMS (done in April/May this year).

gfortran supports several Fortran 2003 and Fortran 2008 features, but 
unfortunately not yet all of them.*

See "Building from Source" at http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranBinaries
