When a REWIND was issued after a WRITE statement on an unformatted
file, the implicit truncation was performed by copying the truncated

It is not necessary anymore to use the option @code{-femulate-complex}
to compile Fortran code using COMPLEX arithmetic, even on 64-bit machines
(like the Alpha). This will improve code generation.

depend on anything but their argument(s). This enables further instruction
scheduling, because it is known that they cannot read or modify arbitrary
