* gfortran.texi: Move license stuff to back. Add information
overhead occurs) or generate function calls (good for large arrays as it
allows use of hand-optimized assembly routines, SIMD instructions, etc.)
-The IO library is still under development. The following features should be
-usable for real programs:
+The IO library is in a mostly usable state. Unformatted I/O for
+@code{REAL(KIND=10)} variables is currently not recommended.

-Many Fortran programs only use a small subset of the available IO
-capabilities, so your mileage may vary.
+Array intrinsics mostly work.
