Re: Update to Fortran "invoke" documentation about the features -finit-<type> *really* provides.

Looks good to me. You can apply it to the 4.6 branch
if you have time.

And then .... shortly before applying it, I realized that the proper documentation of the limitations might be dependent on the -fno-automatic, -fstack-arrays and -fmax-stack-var-size=n compiler flags used.

So I'll come back tomorrow with version 2.0 of this patch, after
checking out all of the above (the documentation of 4.6 and 4.7 will be
different if using -fstack-arrays makes a difference, because that
option only exists in 4.7).

The flags mentioned turned out not to make a difference. I committed the patch as-is to the trunk as revision 182127. On the 4.6 branch it is revision 182138.


I will now change the type of the bug report to "Enhancement" - after all, all of these ease-debugging flags are enhancements over standard compiler behavior (quality-of-implementation issue, as we call it on http://j3-fortran.org).

Thanks for the review.
