It is.

then the Intel Fortran compiler has a bug.

That does not follow. There are many, many things that are illegal for
programs to do, but that compilers are not required to enforce. Indeed
that is the case for the large majority of things in the language. Prior
to f90, that was the case for everything in the language - there were no
requirements for compilers to enforce anything. Diagnostics were purely
a quality of implementation matter.

The illegality of multiple simultaneous opens of the same file just
means that the compiler is not required to make it work. It does not
mean that the compiler is required to make it not work.
