Yeah, but for the APIs that don't have any iso_c_binding arguments
we just use wrappers rather than bind(c) and it allows for more Fortran-like
callers.  So, if omp_target_is_accessible had the *_ wrapper (or alias if
we determine logical ir the same as c_int in the ABI passing), people could
avoid the /= 0 stuff.
Anyway, that is just a thought for future APIs that if they return
false/true only bind(c) isn't always a good idea.
