VAX/VMS version 4.0 was released in 1984.

Please find attached a new version of the patch that fixes the

but a read the appropriate part of the standard several times and

Note that the delimiter used for submodule file name is '@', whereas
the internal identifiers is '.'.
I have added a procedure to cleanup submodules produced by the
testsuite and implemented them in submodule_[1-8].f90. Submodule_8.f90
tests the resolution of the spurious error found by Reinhold.
Booststraps and regtests on FC_21/x86_64 - OK for trunk?
Patch looks ok to me. One item I wonder if we need to care
about is old filesytems (FAT) or operating systems (VMS) with
a 3 character file extension limit.
