The underscore can't appear as the first character in a Fortran
symbol.  So, you would have to compile the F90 to some intermediate
form (perhaps, *.s) and then mangle the names with sed.

IMNSHO, etime_ was a mistake, which is actually documented in the
source code.  I exposed abort_ because the use of std=f95 in the
testsuite would exclude ABORT(), which maps to _gfortran_abort,
from the list of intrinsics procedures.
