(And reading on, the same is true for "Z" according to Richard Maine - he does not mention "O" but I think he also regards it as invalid.) > I think in Fortran 2003 it is clear that they are valid (cf. last > paragraph in comment 15). That should be Fortran *2008* - sorry for the typo. For completeness, I have checked the F2003 corrigenda but couldn't find anything about it. (I agree with Steve that F2003 is inconsistent and that both ways of reading are plausible.) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=41711
