------- Comment #12 from jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org 2005-12-04 23:11 ------- We just had a discussion regarding another similar problem. The maintainers need to come to some concensus on the behavior of some compiler flags such as -std=f95 and -pedantic. Once that is settled then we can address this problem.
The reason triplets fail with some f77 compilers is because that notation was not introduced until f90. I think rather than seek compatibility across all compilers, you should seek standard conformance and encourage users to get standard conforming compilers. BTW Gfortran is pretty affordable. :) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24459
