Yes, but note that (in the Fortran 95 draft standard) CMPLX is specified as
    CMPLX (X[, Y, KIND])
and MAXLOC as
    MAXLOC (ARRAY, DIM[, MASK]) or MASK (ARRAY[, MASK])
(sic)

So MAXLOC is somewhat special. Furthermore in all examples for MAXLOC, 
"MASK=" is spelled out if the argument is present. I will look into this 
in more detail tomorrow.
