I would simply like to note that this is not a universal choice, and
(in my mind) not the most sensible. Common output for this source
include:
01234567890123456789
********************
for Intel, MIPSpro, g95, and
01234567890123456789
0.E+00
or
01234567890123456789
0.D+00
or
01234567890123456789
.E+00
for Portland, IBM and NEC (FORTRAN90/SX Version 2.0 for SX-5),
depending on the language (F77 or F90) selected.
But anyhow, what you propose is better than what we have, so I guess
this patch is OK.
