RHEL Engineering is moving the tracking of its product development work on RHEL 6 through RHEL 9 to Red Hat Jira (issues.redhat.com). If you're a Red Hat customer, please continue to file support cases via the Red Hat customer portal. If you're not, please head to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira and file new tickets here. Individual Bugzilla bugs in the statuses "NEW", "ASSIGNED", and "POST" are being migrated throughout September 2023. Bugs of Red Hat partners with an assigned Engineering Partner Manager (EPM) are migrated in late September as per pre-agreed dates. Bugs against components "kernel", "kernel-rt", and "kpatch" are only migrated if still in "NEW" or "ASSIGNED". If you cannot log in to RH Jira, please consult article #7032570. That failing, please send an e-mail to the RH Jira admins at rh-issues@redhat.com to troubleshoot your issue as a user management inquiry. The email creates a ServiceNow ticket with Red Hat. Individual Bugzilla bugs that are migrated will be moved to status "CLOSED", resolution "MIGRATED", and set with "MigratedToJIRA" in "Keywords". The link to the successor Jira issue will be found under "Links", have a little "two-footprint" icon next to it, and direct you to the "RHEL project" in Red Hat Jira (issue links are of type "https://issues.redhat.com/browse/RHEL-XXXX", where "X" is a digit). This same link will be available in a blue banner at the top of the page informing you that that bug has been migrated.

Description Siddhesh Poyarekar 2011-02-04 12:31:51 UTC
Created attachment 476992 [details]
Backport from r162990 upstream

Description of problem:

gfortran no longer recognizes the -M* options in gcc-4.4. This is a regression in gcc-4.4 caused when gfortran moved from cc1 to libcpp for its external preprocessor. The feature works correctly in RHEL-5. The bug has been documented and fixed upstream:

http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=43954

How Reproducible:

Always

Steps to Reproduce:

root@gncc mtest # cat mtest.F
#include "mtest.h"
        x(1) = 2
        print 10, x(1)
 10     format(' Hello World, x(1) =', i5)
        end

root@gncc mtest # cat mtest.h
        integer x(10)

root@gncc mtest # gcc -M mtest.F

Actual Result:

root@gncc mtest # gcc -M mtest.F
f951: warning: command line option "-M" is valid for C/C++/Java/ObjC/ObjC++ but not for Fortran

Expected Result:

root@gncc mtest # gcc -M mtest.F
mtest.o: mtest.F mtest.h

Comment 3 Jakub Jelinek 2011-02-04 13:03:52 UTC
This has been committed to upstream 4.4 branch on
Date: Sun Aug  8 01:59:15 2010
therefore it is in RHEL6.1 gcc-4.4.5-5.el6, which is currently based on
20110117 snapshot.
