------- Comment #4 from jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-01-09 03:32 ------- I have reviewed our library code to see if we are handling BLANK=status correctly. AFAICT we are doing this right. I was concerned with your report because I thought maybe we were getting a side effect from the patch, but I see nothing at the moment.
I am going to check g77 behavior. Maybe something legacy happening here. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=38772
