Hi Hazen,
Gfortran 4.8.0 was released in march 2013, the last version of that series was 4.8.5, released in june 2015. The current development version is 7.x. Version 5 has seen four releases since the first one in april 2015. While I can imagine there are problems with the new binding if you use this rather old version of gfortran, note that we have been testing this with three unrelated compilers (gfortran 5.x, Intel Fortran 15 and NAG Fortran). I may actually be able to test it with a fourth one, Oracle Fortran, before the freeze date. So I am pretty sure that a recent enough version of any Fortran compiler will be useable. Nevertheless, do you have an error report for gfortran 4.8? We have seen a few issues when we started on this, but I do not remember whether they were serious and with the newer version they have disappeared. (The NAG compiler is rather picky about not following the standard ;)).
