it means that one of the last times I tried, with the "daily g95 build" on
a Linux PC, it compiled almost smoothly (i.e. one single routine required
recompilation without optimization) and worked nicely, even with acceptable
performances. The last time, however, I got an internal compiler error. 
It was several weeks ago, so maybe now it works again. You are welcome
to try and to report problems to the developer (one single person!) of g95.
Sometimes he is very quick in fixing things; sometimes less so. I never 
managed to have an obvious bug with FORALL fixed: finally a workaround
was inserted in PWscf ... Gerardo Ballabio maybe has more recent info.

"The other free f95 compiler", i.e. gfortran, was still too buggy to compile
PWscf the last time I tried (a few months ago)
