I'm afraid it yields false positives. Something like this is supposed to be OK

OMP-wise (and gives the right result in 10000 repetitions) but produces

warnings.



> cat test.f90 

INTEGER, PARAMETER :: N=10

INTEGER :: data(N)



!$OMP PARALLEL DO

DO j=1,N

  data(j)=j

ENDDO



!$OMP PARALLEL DO

DO j=N,1,-1

  data(j)=data(j)-j

ENDDO



IF (ANY(data.NE.0)) CALL abort()



END



> gfortran -fsanitize=thread -O1 -g -fopenmp -fPIC -pie test.f90 ; ./a.out

I'm sure there are knowledgeable people reading the gcc list... posting this

text there seems like a good idea.
