Well, currently only "-lcaf_single". Unfortunately, there is currently 
no working multi-image coarray communication library for gfortran. And 
also the compiler does not yet generated all required communication calls.

The full support is planned - but it is unclear when it will be 
completed. Recall, gfortran is essentially developed in the spare time 
of only a few volunteers. Thus, new volunteers are highly welcome ...
