I'd vote against supporting this very questionable extension. It
may be better to add a section to the manual that documents this
extension works with g77 and is not supported by gfortran.
I've compiled a large amount of the F77 code found on netlib with
gfortran. This extension never triggered an error, so I suspect
that it is very rarely used.
