Replying to comment 7:

It would be cleaner and less ambiguous if all equivalenced commons/variables
are required to be declared threadprivate.

This was more a technical comment as SAVE statement was not discussed before
and in our legacy code we also had 3 such occurrences (equivalence among saved
array elements and local variables). The patch does not address the SAVEd
variables, so an error is still generated. Potentially the scope of the patch
could be extended to also cover the SAVE statement.
