Unless I am mistaken, this patch doesn't touch anything outside the 
fortran/ front-end, so I think we can consider backporting it to 4.1.

$ diff gcc/gcc/fortran gcc-4.1/gcc/fortran|wc -l
743
$ diff gcc/libgfortran gcc-4.1/libgfortran|wc -l
1747

The last number falls down to 484 if we don't count the regenerated files.
