That's correct - that note is out-of-date and I have just deleted it <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/e4f47c8e058b708d3fc43c15538154ec0cf46bc2>. There are also old release notes <https://releases.llvm.org/14.0.0/tools/flang/docs/ReleaseNotes.html> that are also incorrect :( In D126291#3561854 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D126291#3561854>, @Meinersbur wrote: > The bot just compiles flang and runs the unit-test, none of which actually > try to compile, link & run a Fortan program. My point was that the level of support on Windows is in general on a par with other platforms. There are small differences (there always will be), but patches like this one aim to fix that. In particular, the level of testing coverage is very similar. > Until recently the flang driver would not compile itself, but delegate it to > gfortran anyway. The "delegation" is done by the flang-to-external-fc <https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/flang/docs/FlangDriver.md#the-flang-to-external-fc-script> bash wrapper script for the driver rather than the driver itself (until recently, this script used to be called `flang`).

UNSUPPORTED: system-windows` rather than `! UNSUPPORTED: windows-msvc`.
