I missed the beginning, but sometimes it is hard to know what
is a compiler bug and what is a language (mis)feature.  That comes
up pretty often in Fortran as new features are added and it takes
some time for people to understand how to use them.

If you are sure that it is a compiler bug, then that does
seem a better way.
