There's nothing to bisect, there was just one big libgfortran
change in the range I mentioned, one you should already know
about. :)

I wouldn't say that this needs any priority, but I like the idea
of a portion of an I/O-library checking regression in the number
of syscalls using strace (pruning the startup and finish for
obvious reasons).

Ignore that, I missed the dg-shouldfail:s. Or at most note that
dg-shouldfail should be improved to actually look for its
argument in order to distinguish between the expected failure
message and others. Right now it "accepts" any failure.
