Well, I am of a different opinion, and so is the Fortran standard.
I think the compiler should strive to, in that order,
- conform to the language standard
- generate fast programs
- warn about features which may trip the user
In my patch, I have tried to do all three things at the same time, and
after this discussion, I still think that this is the right path
to follow.
So, here is an update on the patch, which also covers ALLOCATED.
Regression-tested. OK?
Thomas
