Hi,

Jan Kratochvil posted three weeks ago Fortran debugging patches, which
seem to be still unreviewed.

It would be great if they could be reviewed and included in gdb.

Currently GDB cannot display allocated or associated (dynamic) Fortran
arrays; with the patch the arrays are properly shown for programs
compiled with GCC's gfortran (4.3.0 2007-12-09 or later), ifort and xlf.

The patchset is:

Carlos Eduardo Seo tested these patches and wrote: "it's working with
XLF on ppc64. Running the testsuite on ppc64 also shows no regressions."

Thanks too all for your work on GDB.
