This prevents > longer characters on 64-bit targets. We should change to use size_t instead, > similar to the C string functions (str*(), mem*()), malloc(), etc. Also > Intel Fortran does this nowadays. > > Now that the libgfortran ABI version has been bumped, it is the right time > to do this. > > See also https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/LibgfortranAbiCleanup Agree, Are you going to do this?
