But is it consistently handled as an intrinsic?
Modify the program by adding the line

intrinsic :: iargc

and compile without -std=f95.
Now the name gets mapped to _gfortran_iargc, which is reasonable.
If I declare it as external, then it becomes iargc_.  So far so good.

Adding -std=f95 makes the compilation fail with the error message

 In file iargc.f90:3

integer :: iargc
               1
Error: Intrinsic at (1) does not exist

but only if iargc is declared as intrinsic.

Thus, a symbol that is _neither_ declared as intrinsic nor external
can change its behavior under the language level flag: it is mapped
to the intrinsic name in one case (no -std=f95), and to the
external name in the other.

This is why I consider it surprising and undesirable.
A better way would be to have a separate flag to control
the behavior and availability of such intrinsics separately,
independent of the standard conformance flags.
