I don't understand your response, or the assumptions that might be behind it.
The program is standard fortran that compiles without warning, and I cannot see
why I would not want doubles aligned at 64 bits on x86 hardware, just like all
the other compilers, including the other free one, do. Is it written down
somewhere that there is no intention to support this mode of operation in the
foreseeable future? Google sends me to, for example,
http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2007-02/msg00026.html which does not undermine my
assumptions as unreasonable.  If you speak on behalf of the gfortran community
in saying you will not address this, then we will simply once again for a while
walk away from attempting support of gfortran in our large and widely-used
code.
