Backports to 4.2

Hi all.

As Mark plans to release 4.2.1 in mid-July, I would like to see whether there 
are any of my patches to trunk that need backporting to the 4.2-branch. Some 
of the associated PRs are still open an could be closed either way. These 
are:

	PR 22359 - FSEEK intrinsic (open)
	PR 31760 - missing elemental applicability (closed)
	PR 31919 - min/max do not check array conformance (open)
	PR 31929 - atan2 accepts non-conforming array shapes (open)
	PR 31930 - bes[jy]n intrinsics not elemental (closed)
	PR 32001 - MAX intrinsic with large number of arguments (closed)
	PR 32002 - insufficient conformance check (open)

Of these, only PR22359 and PR32002 represent regressions (g77 and 4.2 
respectively), the others are bug-fixes. Nonetheless, as FSEEK was sort of 
intrusive, I'd like to omit this in backporting (demand is low anyway) but 
would ike to backport all others as they are generally quite simple and 
correct some oversights that may be annoying for the users.

Ok to proceed?

	Daniel
