Hi Harald,
Looks fine to me ...
... I will of course remove
* gfortran.dg/warn_unused_but_set_error_1.s: New test.
from the patch before it is committed (left over from testing).
... if you do this.
Done and committed as r17-1932, thanks!
I have also applied the patch below to wwwdocs after checking
with "tidy -e -q" and looking at it with Firefox.

Mention new set vs. used warning options for Fortran.
* htdocs/gcc-17/changes.html: Document the effectiveness

-Wundefined-vars,
-Wunused-intent-out and -Wunused-read.
