AUTOMATIC attribute
Speaking of which, to avoid confusion maybe we should rename the
-f[no-]automatic option to something like -f[no-]save, since the
Fortran standard description of an "automatic data object" doesn't
really have anything to do with the option, and neither does the
option have anything to do specifically with the DEC AUTOMATIC
specifier?

While in principle I concur that the naming is bad, I fear this will break several makefiles – hence, I am not sure it is worth the trouble – and I am declined to say that it isn't.

Cheers,

Tobias
