------- Comment #7 from tkoenig at gcc dot gnu dot org  2008-02-26 21:45 -------
If we don't have a way to truncate a file, we won't have an
easy time enforcing Fortran semantics.  Are there any other
ways of truncating a file on that particular target?

If there aren't, we could

a) refuse to configure for that target at all
b) fail at runtime (noisily) and xfail the
   corresponding test cases
c) juggle the file offsets, never read past the
   (logical) end of file and do a copy-on-close.  Yuck.

My personal preference would go towards b), but again - there
has to be a way of truncating a file, right?
