Thanks for taking the time to write this down!  The patch is fine, I just
recommend to use a full stop instead of a semicolon after "logarithm".

Re: How do I submit a bug report?

[I'm copying this reply to the developers mailing-list, as a heads up  
about the http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html page; the original message was  
in the gnu-fortran google group]

Hum, indeed, we seriously need to update that page. Thanks for *that*  
bug report :-)

> Should a gfortran bug be   submitted through the gcc Bugzilla page?

Yes, the gcc bugzilla (http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/) is the right  
place to report gfortran bugs: create a new bug, choose GCC and then  
select "fortran" as the "Component".

In the case of C, the .i files are the preprocessed files. When  
reporting gfortran bugs, please include the preprocessed source  
(which has lowercase file extension), as well as any files included  
by the Fortran "include" directive, and all source files containing  
modules used in the main source file. The point is that we have to be  
able to compile and reproduce the problem with the files you give us.

Thanks,
FX

[Patch,wwwdocs] bugs.html: Remove g77 item

Hi all,

as an email to fortran@ has just shown, the g77 item of bugs.html is
more misleading than helpful.

I would therefore suggest to remove the (g77) Fortran specific entry.

In general, the page could be shortened/updated. Who does still need a
list of bugs present in 3.3.x but fixed in 3.4.x?

Is the patch below OK for check in?

tiny typo in documentation

Hi.
 On
http://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc-4.2.2/gfortran/ALLOCATED.html#ALLOCATED

it is written

"If X is allocated, ALLOCATED(X) is .TRUE.; otherwise, it returns the .TRUE.  "

It should be ".FALSE." at the end, I think.

Regards.
Dima.

Thanks for reporting this. Fix committed to mainline.

status of patch 22244

Hi,

Has the gfortran patch 22244 (improve debug info for packed arrays)
been merged into the latest version of gfortran yet?

I'm currently using gcc version 4.1.2 20070502 (Red Hat 4.1.2-12) and
I had some problems using the totalview debugger viewing arrays
in gfortran-compiled code.  Their tech support people pointed me to
this patch.

If this patch hasn't been incorporated into a delivered version,
is it expected to be sometime in future?

Thanks,

Catherine

The patch went into mainline (which will become 4.3 and later
compilers) and also into the RedHat 4.1 branch (so that later 4.1
releases from RedHat will have it; for more detailed info on that
point, you should ask them). It is not present in the standard 4.1 or
4.2 releases.

Yes, please remove ...

Sounds good to me as well.

I believe that list of bugs partly served to help people migrate their
codebases from 3.3 to 3.4 (which included completely new a C++ parser)
and have them still compile with the older version as well.

GCC 3.4.0 has been released three-and-a-half years ago, so I hope the
latter point is not that relevant any longer.  I thus went ahead and
applied the patch below.

Gerald

Remove the "[C++] Bugs fixed in the 3.4 series" subsection and migrate
the "Missing [C++] features" section to "Non-bugs -- C++", removing
their common ancestor.
