On the contrary: The documentation clearly and concisely states

SIZE    (Optional) Shall be a scalar and of type default INTEGER, with
INTENT(OUT). It specifies the minimum size of the arrays used with the
PUT and GET arguments.

Admitted, it does not say SIZE = 8, because this value may be
compiler- and system-dependent (may also be 12 for gfortran on some
platforms), which is why the standard provides the SIZE argument in
the first place.

I fail to see the problem - could you clarify?
