G77 does compile the test.

IMO the f77 extensions that have not been already added to gfortran should not
be implemented, but documented in the section

6.2 Extensions not implemented in GNU Fortran

of the manual. I can submit a draft patch for this PR if someone is will to fix
my Frenglish and formatting issues and do the commit.

As for today, there are 738 opened PRs, among them 245 are UNCONFIRMED.
