It's a common extension.  The standard (up to and including F95)
has no concept of a preprocessor.  In fact, the standard has
no concept of a compiler.  Section 1.2 of the standard define

1.2     Processor
   The combination of a computing system and the mechanism by which
   programs are transformed for use on that computing system is
   called a processor in this standard.
