        PR fortran/34997
        * match.c (gfc_match_name): Improve error message for '$'.
OK. Maybe a slight modification of the wording:

+ gfc_error ("Invalid character '$' at %C. Use -fdollar-ok to accept it");
"... Use -fdollar-ok to relax this constraint"?
"... Use -fdollar-ok to allow it as an extension"?
(take with a pile of salt, coming from a non native english speaker.)


This is a bit weird.  C and C++ have the option "-f{no-}dollars-in-identifiers"
but FORTRAN has "-fdollar-ok" for exactly the same meaning?

Andrew.
