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.

I would not not call out a particular standard version.  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.
