------- Comment #9 from jakub at gcc dot gnu dot org 2007-09-19 14:11 ------- Well, it is the Fortran standard that says free form comments start with ! And then OpenMP2.5 2.1.2 goes on and says certain forms of comments are not to be treated as comments, but OpenMP directives etc. One of them is !$omp followed by space, one of them is !$omp& if the previous line was an openmp directive line ending with &. Or !$ followed by space (for conditional compilation). Anything else is a comment. So an error would be wrong.
