this is an enhancement for the -fwhole-file option. Like many other compilers
it would be good if gfortran would have a way (either default on not) to turn
the errors produced by -fwhole-file into just a warning. In particular, to
allow quasi-standard (type-cheating) abuse of procedures that are called but
have an implicit interface.
ifort: no options, no warnings
g95: no options, some warnings
nag: option (-dusty), warning
