The attached patch documents the new Fortran options
-freal-N-real-M and -finteger-4-integer-8.  These
options are used for promoting all entities of the 
first type to entities of the second type.

OK to commit?

PS: Is there a ChangeLog file for the wwwdoc repository?

Looks OK to me. Though, I had made the N and M italic at:

+<code>-freal-N-real-M</code></a>  have been added.  These options promote
and
+<code>N</code>  and<code>M</code>  can be 4 and 8 and, if available,

No, there is no ChangeLog - and due to using CVS, the commit message 
(may but) does not need to contain file name as cvs saves the log per file.

Something like

  <code>-freal-<em>N</em>-real-<em>M</em></code></a> have been added.  
  These options promote and <em>N</em> and <em>M</em> can be 4 and 8
  and, if available...

?  Yes, that would be nice.

Yep.  Just something like
  Document -freal-N-real-M and -finteger-4-integer-8.
would be fine.  If you prefer a changelog entry like we do for code,
that's fine as well, though. :-)
