See Fortran 95 standard,
http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/GFortranStandards
http://j3-fortran.org/doc/standing/archive/007/97-007r2/pdf/97-007r2.pdf
in Section "B.2 Obsolescent features":
"The obsolescent features are those features of Fortran 90 that were redundant
and for which better methods were available in Fortran 90. Section 1.7.2
describes the nature of the obsolescent features. The obsolescent features in
this standard are the following:
...
(9) CHARACTER* form of CHARACTER declaration - see B.2.7."
Closed as INVALID.
