Looking back at the draft F95 standard that I have I am amazed.  As you stated
in your note the standard calls for no quotes on namelist write if no DELIM= has
been specified. And yet, right after that, there is a note stating that the
result of such a namelist write may not be correctly readable.

That was a few years ago when we discussed this issue.  IIRC the consensus was
to make what is written as readable for default behavior.  I think what we do
now is the reasonable approach

For this patch I chose to stay consistent with what we currently do.  I can
change it to standard conforming.  Anyone else have any comments on this?

Regards,

Jerry
