[Bug fortran/16196] New: gfortran fails to create file with OPEN(...,status='REPLACE')

["grief at maths dot ox dot ac dot uk" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

Hi,

The fortran code:

PROGRAM iobug
OPEN(UNIT=10,FILE='gfcoutput.txt',status='REPLACE')
END PROGRAM iobug

gives the output:

bash$ ./a.out 
At line 6 of file gfcio.f90
Fortran runtime error: No such file or directory
bash$

when the file 'gfcoutput.txt' does *not* exist at runtime. The program should
create this file if it does not exist when the flag status='REPLACE' is used.
The program does the right thing if the file already exists at runtime.

Here's the output for the version report:

Reading specs from
/merlot/staff/pmzag/irun/bin/../lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.5.0/specs
Configured with: ../gcc/configure --enable-languages=c,f95
--prefix=/usr/work/2004177/irun
Thread model: posix
gcc version 3.5.0 20040625 (experimental)

I couldn't find this in Bugzilla already, but it's the first time I've used
Bugzilla... Many thanks.
Andrew
