No. gfortran never tried to address the Fortran 90 standard. Whatever is stated in F90 is irrelevant to the extent that gfortran is a Fortran 95 compiler and F90 beget F95. > > (2) Shall I submit a patch to replace > > The Fortran 2003 standard specifies the intrinsic RANDOM_SEED to initialize > the pseudo-random numbers generator and RANDOM_NUMBER to generate > pseudo-random numbers. > > with > > The Fortran 9? standard specifies the intrinsic RANDOM_SEED to initialize > the pseudo-random numbers generator and RANDOM_NUMBER to generate > pseudo-random numbers.

Probably something like The Fortran standard specifies the intrinsic subroutine RANDOM_SEED to initialize the pseudo-random numbers generator and the intrinsic subroutine RANDOM_NUMBER to generate pseudo-random numbers. These subroutines should be used in new codes.
