------- Comment #6 from dfranke at gcc dot gnu dot org  2008-11-28 23:02 -------
In gcc.c (cpp_unique_options) we have "%{i*}" which passes on any -i<something>
it might encounter, including -i8. This is why we get an error if preprocessing
is enabled, as -i8 is not known. So, the problem is not getting an error with
.F, but getting no error with .f!

Now, looking for the whereabouts of -i8, one sees with -v that it's not passed
to f951, hence it was eaten by the driver?! Interestingly, using -k8, the
compiler complains: "unrecognized option '-k8'". In gcc.c (main) we find:

  /* Now we have the specs.
     Set the `valid' bits for switches that match anything in any spec.  */

  validate_all_switches ();

Which includes the cpp-spec which uses (cpp_unique_options). Thus, we have a
pass interested in the '-i8', namely cpp, which then is never run. In order to
make f951 complain about -i*, we need to forward it in the specs. Otherwise it
will be simply skipped - to be used with a pass never run.


Propsed patch for trunk/4.4 (not regtested yet):
