ANSI FORTRAN 77 standard, section 11.10.8:
	"Transfer of control into the range of a DO-loop from outside the
	range is not permitted."
section 11.10.1:
	"The range of a DO-loop consists of all of the executable statements
	that appear following the DO statement that specifies the DO-loop,
	up to and including the terminal statement of the DO-loop.
