Well, I just reported a problem to NAG (www.nag.com) 
with their Fortran 95 compiler.  The bug was found
by phkmalloc and the AJ setting.  NAG fixed the bug
within 3 days and supplied a new binary.  BTW, this
is the only native Fortran 95 compiler for FreeBSD.
I told NAG's tech support about the AJ feature and
it appears NAG found at least one other bug with this
set.

I think AJ should be left set in the DP releases with
a prominent note in the RELNOTES about the possible
performance impact.
