For the sake of explanation, not adding much to the discussion: gfortran
strives for compatibility with g77 (the longtime 'standard' Fortran
compiler). g77 used traditional preprocessing. That's why gfortran
behaves the way it does. I'm surprised other compilers chose to act
incompatibly. Since noone complained so far (as for all I remember), my
guess is that either the differences simply are not what Fortran users
care about or people are happy with g77-compatible behavior.
