I have seen sufficient bugs in previous versions to be fairly sure
that the bugs must be there in the current version. What does LF95 7.1
do about

http://home.comcast.net/~kmbtib/Fortran_stuff/elem_assign.f90

for example? If you use any compiler as your primary development
compiler for a while you are going to encounter bugs. The f95
standard itself has bugs and internal contradictions and I have
no idea how you could create a standard for which this would not
be the case. How can you write a bug-free compiler to an
inconsistent standard?
