My preference would be instead of linking a shared library we link an object file into the executable. This contains an __attribute__((constructor)) routine that calls set_default_record_marker_*. It should be possible to link with just libgfortran.{so,a}, and get a working executable with sensible defaults.

I really like that idea! Takes the best of ech point of view (not lots of shared libraries, still possible to link with libgfortran with good defaults, and a link-time mechanism).

Sorry for this "me2" message with no real content, but this I found this idea really interesting.
