Agreed. Using -pedantic only, one gets the expected

  f(x) = x*x
            1
Warning: Obsolescent feature: Statement function at (1)


In principle I would expect that -Werror turns this into "Error:
Obsolescent feature: ..."

So it seems like -Werror is broken in this case.

Btw, for the following:

real :: y
end

I get with both -Wall and -Wall -Werror:

  real :: y
           1
Warning: Unused variable 'y' declared at (1)


With the additional -Werror I would expect to see "Error: Unused
variable ...". Is this another case of -Werror being broken, or are my
expectations misguided?
