When the following program (truncbug.f) is compiled with gfortran 4.3.2: SUBROUTINE ERRMSG(N,STRING,LST) CHARACTER*72 TEXT(2) DATA (TEXT(I),I=1,2)/ X'MUST BE "CALL SIMEPS(EPS)"', X'"R" IN CALL RANDOM MAY NOT BE USED OUTSIDE THE BLOCK CONTAINING T XHE CALL.'/ END
This warning message results: truncbug.f:4.72: X'MUST BE "CALL SIMEPS(EPS)"', 1 Warning: initialization string truncated to match variable at (1) This is two lines before the line that the string truncation occurs on.
