This seems in the category of proposals that should wait for the JoR to 
reopen.

There is no syntax or mechanism in Fortran to specify that an interface 
body is for a C procedure.  This was one of the issues with this 
proposal. If a revised version includes a new LANGUAGE= specifier for 
BIND(...), then we could claim that the body is for a C procedure and 
have greater chance at consensus.

Cheers,
Bill
