Will any one or more of the documents at https://www.wg5-fortran.org
be able to provide the actual reasons behind the change to the
standard text as indicated above in going from Fortran 95 revision to
Fortran 2003?  I attempted some crude searches of my own at the WG5

brought in the extra word "actual" .
