This problem happens only on 4.3, and only with target gnualtivec... First noticed on snapshot of Oct 23
I have 4000+ gfortran tests failing because of a warning message from the compiler. Here is an example: /temp/gnu_toolchain/build_area/gcc-trunk/obj_gcc-trunk_7450/gcc/testsuite/gfortran/../../gfortran -B/temp/gnu_toolchain/build_area/gcc-trunk/obj_gcc-trunk_7450/gcc/testsuite/gfortran/../../ /temp/gnu_toolchain/build_area/gcc-trunk/gcc-trunk/gcc/testsuite/gfortran.dg/char_unpack_2.f90 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -funroll-loops -pedantic-errors -c /temp/gnu_toolchain/build_area/gcc-trunk/gcc-trunk/gcc/testsuite/gfortran.dg/char_unpack_2.f90:0: warning: 'const' attribute directive ignored 4.2 does not have this problem, other 4.3 powerpc targets does not either...
