Not to belabor the point, but that is simply not correct. Using the Fortran 2008 standard for reference, that code violates syntax rule R1220, constraint C1226, of clause 12.5.1. -- R1220 call-stmt is CALL procedure-designator [ ( [ actual-arg-spec-list ] ) ] C1226 (R1220) The procedure-designator shall designate a subroutine. This is not to be construed as an argument that it should be fixed -- I concur with Andrew Pinski's rationale -- it just needs to be documented. That's all.
