I do understand that it would be easier for you to "tweak" the kind numbers
used by gfortran to accomodate old code, but there really is a problem with
doing so: it will, for example, clash with the prospected use of real(kind=16)
for software floating-points, which we plan to incorporate into gfortran.
After some discussion on IRC, I'm closing this as WONTFIX, unless something
thinks of a way to avoid the clash and step forward to actually implement this
enhancement. In that later case, please REOPEN the bug.
