As I saw, Keven has split them into parts in mid January:

Any estimate when you have time to start reviewing them piecewise?
Or other comments?
I think it would be great if 7.10 (8.0?) would support Fortran 90
code out of the box.

Side note: Looking at GCC's include/dwarf2.def, I see
DW_TAG (DW_TAG_atomic_type, 0x47)
which is not yet in binutils-gdb, cf.
https://sourceware.org/ml/gdb-patches/2015-01/msg00653.html
Also upcoming is the support for DW_LANG_Fortran03/08, cf.
