IMHO F2003 compatibility is be more important than g77 compatibility, so I
would be ok with making -fno-backslash the default. That being said, at the
very least -fno-backslash should be enabled with -std=f2003.
Though I agree with Steve that platform-specific behaviour should be avoided.
Not only #ifdefs, but it might also confuse multiplatform users .
