Compilation error

[Daniel Carrera]

Wait... are you saying that a different F2008-compliant compiler may not 
support this feature? My understanding from the discussion here and at 
comp.lang.fortran was that this was a brand new feature added to F2008 
and so it is entirely valid to use it.

Cheers,
Daniel.
