This is a strange thing to say. Maybe you should decribe your definition
of "serious use". Cobol still runs many financial transactions and
Fortran is used in high performance numerical computing. Granted, these
things are legacy and most people would be glad to get rid of them, but
it is very hard, especially if you have code that was tested for decades
and is now considered bug-free which runs critical infrastructure.
But there is a reason that compilers for these languages are still being
actively developed and sold[1-3].
