Hi Harald, Another good one - OK for master but wait a while for 11-branch.
I am a bit hesitant about 10-branch because this is not a regression. That said, this is harmless because it is permissive, so I will leave it to you to decide. Is there a test for an error with -std=f2003? If not, you should, perhaps, include one.
