I thought the gfortran manual had just been updated adequately
<http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc-patches/2004-04/msg00673.html>!  (Of course any

documentation and testcase requirements that apply on mainline.)

On the contrary, some existing code may not have been brought up to the
current coding conventions (codingconventions.html) and front end
checklist (in sourcebuild.texi) but new code should follow these from the
start.
