>> The custom matcher for binding label, in gfc_match_bind_c(), is removed and 
>> the generic matcher gfc_match_init_expr() is called, followed by checks that 
>> the expression obtained fulfills the constraints of a C identifier.
>> 
>> So, now is the time to think about PR 38839 (what characters to allow as a 
>> binding label): right now, I allow alphadecimals, underscore and dollar. 
>> From the PR comments, it seems like @ and ` might be also allowed for 
>> universal-character names, but they are not supported by GCC on platforms I 
>> tested right now. Let me know what you think, but I don’t think we should 
>> worry to much about it.

>> Bootstrapped and regtested on x86_64-apple-darwin13, comes with testcases.
>> OK to commit?
