Yes, you are right.  Paul Brook reminded me that it is a mistake to not 
apply the same fixes to the 4.0 branch as to mainline, as that will 
generated confusion in the least and probably real errors.

I'll take care of it.

Will fix.

Hmmm, it could well have been covered by the rules to *not* do it. 
However, the reason I added my name was because I wanted to take 
responsibility for this change.  If after half a year someone comes 
around and asks on the Fortran list why their code has gone, I can find 
back why I deleted it.
