Support for allocated/associated arrays and also referenced strings is
implemented in the Archer branch archer-jankratochvil-vla.
gdb.fortran/dynamic.exp gdb.fortran/string.exp

More correct support for common blocks for `info common' is implemented as
a part of archer-jankratochvil-misc (single commit 8ee641b3).
gdb.fortran/common-block.exp

Currently there is still unimplemented modules importing, tracker at:
  https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=466118
It should be based on the C++-targeted archer-swagiaal-using-directive branch.

Pointing out any missing Fortran support parts is sure appreciated.

For simplicity all is being merged to: archer-rmoseley-demo-merge

There were committed two parts but they were only cleaning up the generic code
still whichout any effect on Fortran:
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-10/msg00248.html
	http://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2008-10/msg00067.html

I will send next part(s) these days, thanks for the review offer.
