So, naturally, I tried to look up this change to see the rationale  
behind it, but as far as I can see this was never discussed here.

Mark, could you dig up *why* this change was necessary ?

Note that, although strictly speaking the new way of compiling  
statement functions in Fortran resulting from this change is not in  
conflict with the Fortran Standard, it will sure be seen as a (lack  
of) quality of implementation.

Please help us out.

Thanks,
Toon.
