Hmmm, most of the output changes in Markus' patch actually bring the
output in line with correct Fortran syntax in the first place ;-)

The one addition is the representation of "union" types in the output;
this can never happen in regular Fortran, but can happen if you access
registers that use a gdbarch-defined union type.  This extension is
simply the "C_Union" marker; note that as far as the *parser* is
concerned, there is no syntax extension.

But I guess you're right that this extension should be documented.
I assume the right place would be somewhere in section 12.4.3 Fortran?

Bye,
Ulrich
