Everthing above matches gfortran with the possible exception of
File_Storage_Size and Numeric_Storage_Size.  I don't F2003
handy.  What do these values means?

They're the size, in bits, of file storage units and numeric storage units, respectively.

9.2.4: "A file storage unit is the basic unit of storage in a stream file or an unformatted record file. It is the unit of file position for stream access, the unit of record length for unformatted files, and the unit of file size for all external files."

16.4.3.1: "A nonpointer scalar object of type default integer, default real, or default logical occupies a single numeric storage unit.... A nonpointer scalar object of type double precision real or default complex occupies two contiguous numeric storage units...."
