Just to forstall a flood of "Oh, here's how to fix the DO loop parsing"
type messages, let me point out that there are NO reserved words in FORTRAN
and that any spelled out operator, such as IF, THEN, STOP, END, etc pose
identical problems.  This is not just a case of clean coding vs someone
trying to be clever; this pops up in real, useful, FORTRAN as well.
