Thanks for the quick response. I agree that the ultimate fix is to remove that idiom from the code; however, when dealing with decades old fortran code, we don't always have the time or resources to do it right. I will try to write a better test code next time that isn't buggy... --Greg burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org wrote: > ------- Comment #16 from burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org 2009-07-08 20:55 > ------- > Close as FIXED (on the trunk [= 4.5]). > > Greg, thanks for the report.
