Yes, five of them, easily seen by reformatting the code:

    write(6, "(3(1x,i3),1x,f12.6,1x,f12.6)"),
    hkl(1, i),
    hkl(2, i),
    hkl(3, i),
    f_calc(1, i),
    f_calc(2, i);

Assuming there's no macro funny business going on, that's 6 function
calls (or macro invocations?) separated by comma operators.  (The commas
separating function arguments are of course not comma operators.)

Replacing the comma at the end of each line by a semicolon (and possibly
surrounding the whole thing with curly braces) yields equivalent code.
The braces are needed if the context is something like:

    if (condition)
        write(6, "(3(1x,i3),1x,f12.6,1x,f12.6)"), hkl(1, i), hkl(2, i),
        hkl(3, i), f_calc(1, i), f_calc(2, i);

Things might change if any of write, hkl, and f_calc is a macro.  If
they're well behaved macros, it shouldn't matter.
