And Fortran95 too :-
A scalar object of type default integer, default real, or default
logical occupies one numeric storage unit. Defaul complex and
default double precision real values occupy two consecutive numeric
storage units.
I don't see this being removed from Fortran until both COMMON and
EQUIVALENCE are also removed...
