gfortran has some support for Fortran 2003 and Fortran 2008
features.  Under Fortran 2008, your program is a valid program.
Under Fortran 2003 (and earlier), your program is invalid.
By default gfortran accepts everything including vendor
extensions.  If you want to restrict gfortran to a particular
standard, then you need to use the -std option.

-std=gnu    Default behavior. Accept a whole lotta garbage.
-std=f95    Restricted to Fortran 95 standard.
-std=f2003  Restricted to Fortran 2003 standard.
-std=f2008  Restricted to Fortran 2008 standard.
