(j3.2006) Binding label and bind(c) procedure name scopes

[Bill Long]

In 04-007 (F2003) 16.1 on Scope of global identifiers lists the name of an ?external procedure? as a global identifier, unqualified.

In 10-007r1 (F2008) 16.1 on Global identifiers lists the name of an "external procedure with no binding label? as a global identifier and 16.2 on Local identifiers lists then names of "external procedures that have binding labels? as class 1 local identifiers.  04-007 does not mention binding labels in 16.2 .  This change might have occurred by an interp to F2003, which would explain the lack of mention in the F2008 introduction. 

Cheers,
Bill
