The following program 

      character*10 mot
      double precision  d
      real f
      mot = '4,  '
      read(mot,11) i
11    format(i)
      write(*,*) 'i=',i
      read(mot,21) f
21    format(f)
      write(*,*) 'f=',f
      read(mot,31) d
31    format(d)
      write(*,*) 'd=',d
      end

gives the following results

 i=           4
 f=  4.0000000E-07
 d=  4.0000000000000004E-16

Of course the results for f and d re wrong. 
Is this fixed in version 2.10 of the compiler ?

We are using version 2.0
