I'm just wondering loud if it would be more convenient to have a
unsigned hidden_arg:1 bit in let's say gfc_actual_arglist that denotes
if the argument should be const eval'ed and used before, and, most
importantly not passed to the library. We seem to have more than just
the index intrinsic's kind arg in that boat. And from what i read,
powerpc will eventuall want to select quite some kind-specific library
functions soon, depending on how this part is implemented..

Maybe add SPEC_HIDDEN_ARG / SPEC_LIBRARY_SELECTOR additional
gfc_param_spec_type if a separate bit is deemed inappropriate.

Such a hidden_arg/library_selector/non_library_call_arg flag is maybe
better than matching individual functions and strcmp the arg name.

cheers,
