This looks nonconforming.  The syntax rule says

<do-variable> is <scalar-int-variable-name>

and 10.OP.P does not qualify as a "name".

Interestingly, there is a constraint immediately following that says

C812 (R819) The do-variable shall be a variable of type integer.

Is that constraint really necessary?

Cheers,
Bill
