OK, I got it. Support for real(kind=10) on i386 was removed from the
4.0 branch (I think that was before the 4.0.0 release) because the
support for completely broken.
The same code should be working fine with either 4.1 (for example,
4.1.0 RC1: ftp://gcc.gnu.org/pub/gcc/prerelease-4.1.0-20060219) or the
4.2 branch (nightly snapshot here:
http://quatramaran.ens.fr/~coudert/gfortran/gcc-svn.tar.bz2).
Unfortunately, we don't have nightly binaries available for freebsd (I
used to build them, but I lost access to the computer that was running
freebsd).
