i don't know about the backporting question, but as far as maintaining, i 
do plan on continuing work on it after i submit it so i'll be 
around for bugs that come up.  i do plan on working more on the procedure 
decl stmt's, which i've started (very simple versions of them work right 
now), but the bigger part of it is to allow the pointer attribute for 
procedure decl variables.  

yesterday, i made dejagnu tests out of more of my test cases, so now the 
main tests that i have not added are those that test gfortran's abilities 
for catching errors.  with my latest tests added, there are no unexpected 
failures when i do 'make check-gfortran'.  

we've been trying to get ahold of the FSF person that is in charge of my 
paperwork, but have been unable to.  we'd like to know if they received 
the paperwork, and if they approve it.  i'll try again today.

i apologize this is taking so long..  i'd like to see this get previewed 
in 4.2.
