You need to use "transfer(' ', 0.0)" to initialize all bytes. If you have a suggestion how to improve the warning message or if you have any other suggestion, I would be grateful. I tried some compiles and the resulting rft is varying a lot: 4.484155086E-44, -4.1234682E-11, -2.4305621E-28, 1.0774349E+12 -- burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |burnus at gcc dot gnu dot | |org http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33544
