I do consider them usual, but I'll defer to the Fortran maintainers
on this (and the patch per se).
If I may suggest some minor changes, though?
Index: intrinsic.texi
===================================================================
+This intrinsic is provided in both subroutine and function forms; however,

How about chaning "...forms; however, only one..." to "forms. Only one
form can be..."?
+This intrinsic is provided in both subroutine and function forms; however,
+only one form can be used in any given program unit.
Similarly here.
+Stores the current user name in @var{LOGIN}. (On systems where
+the @code{getlogin(3)} function is not implemented, this will
+return a blank string.)
I suggest to omit the parentheses here, and make "stores in" and
"return a blank string" more consistent. (I assume that also in
the latter case, that blank string is going to be returned in LOGIN?)
