I dug up gfortran 5.4, which does not emit DW_TAG_entry_point with my
simple example program.  Does anybody actually use it?

IBM XL Fortran generates it.

$ cat entry.f
subroutine foo(a)
   integer a
   real b

   a = 5
   return
entry bar(b)
   b = 3.0
   return
end subroutine
$

Gets the following DWARF:

That is kind of weird, because foo only has dummy argument a
and entry bar only has b, there is nothing that tells the debug info
consumer that the subprogram doesn't have (a, b) arguments.

This looks odd to me as well.

Looking at the DWARF, I would interpret it to say that foo takes two
arguments, a and b, and bar takes zero arguments.  Shouldn't the
DW_TAG_formal_parameter for b be a child of the DW_TAG_entry_point,
not the DW_TAG_subprogram?
