   Yes. You need to add a KIND number to the integer; the code above   
   chose INT64, which is (if available) is predefined in an intrinsic   
   module.  If you do that, things Just Work (TM); you can use these   
   integers for I/O, array subscripts, DO loops and arithmetic.   
      
   This problem was solved in 1991, when Fortran 90 became the   
   standard.  The same mechanism can be used to select between   
   different REAL types.  Far cleaner than Fortran 77 (obviously)   
   and also than C and C++.
