Please tell me you are joking?
No, that will NOT work, in general. Firstly, the xxx in INTEGER*xxx was
introduced in Fortran IV as a digit string and not a constant, and all
of the compilers I know of still do that. Secondly, it is NOT always
aligned with the KIND values, and there is no implication in any document
I know of that it should be.
