I think this is a bug, too.
My thinking is that writing to * (or PRINTing)
should go to standard output, and that unit 6
just happens to be a convention for a preconnected
unit that does the same thing.
ifort, for example, does things differently:
$ cat open2.f
open(6,file="foo.dat")
print *,"hello, world"
end
$ ifort open2.f
$ ./a.out
hello, world
$ ifort -V

ifort: Command line error: no files specified; for help type "ifort -help"
Does the Fortran standard say anything that messing with unit 6
can be bad news for unit * ?
I have marked the bug as "enhancement" with this.
