Sure, it happens with many flags in fact, not only in Fortran, since -Wall
either does not check whether the flag was already initialized, or it sets the
value too early. Ideally, flags that enable other flags should be checked last,
and they should only touch flags that haven't been set already in the
command-line. But this is only done on a case-by-case basis by using -1 as
starting value (I did it mostly for -Wextra, -Wunused, and -Wimplicit). It
would be nice that the options handling code would take care of this, by
specifying the relations in *.opt files.
