------- Comment #12 from tobias dot burnus at physik dot fu-berlin dot de 2006-10-23 18:52 ------- Cf. also bug 29471.
In the Intel Fortran Compiler real :: r data r/some BOZ/ gives the same result as using the Fortran 2003 statement in ifort: real :: r r = real(some boz) (At least with the "-switch fe_new_BOZ_constants".) Therefore, with Fortran 2003 BOZ support in place, implementing this in gfortran should then become easier. (Working around will also become easier.( (As gfortran accepts [integer] BOZ everywhere, it will also have the problem whether real( z'F' ) is meant as "convert integer BOZ to integer and then to real" or as "convert real BOZ to real". Ifort gives a default warning for both -stand f95 and -stand f03, treating the BOZ differently for those two cases.) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=18026
