F03/0034 IEEE_LOGB()
The style of the two new cases would be more consistent with that of
the existing cases if the order of the conditions were reversed ("If X
is infinite and IEEE_SUPPORT_INF(X) is true ..." etc).  This applies
also to F2008.

F03/0063 Procedure pointers in BLOCK DATA program units
Nit-pick: In the edit for [98:21] "allocatable" should read
"allocatable,"

F03/0135 Interaction between RESULT, recursion, and host generic
The edit at [276:36+] should read "that scoping unit" rather than "the
scoping unit" for consistency with the other cases.

F03/0138 External <procedure-name> as <proc-target>
The proposed edit results in rather opaque English.  Changing
"association, referenced" to "association and is referenced" gives a
slight improvement.  The constraint would then be:

   A <procedure-name> shall be the name of a module or dummy procedure,
   a specific intrinsic function listed in 13.6 and not marked with a
   bullet (?), a procedure pointer, or an external procedure that is
   accessed by USE or host association and is referenced in the scoping
   unit as a procedure, or that has the EXTERNAL attribute.
