--- Comment #8 from Yuri Victorovich <yuri at rawbw.com> ---
Many potential fortran ports aren't even possible with the current gfortran. So
the option USES=fortran is generally broken anyways.

fortran:flang can be committed as an experimental option, with a corresponding
message. It makes it easier to test flang. Some package combinations can
directly benefit. For example, R with fortran:flang makes RStudio possible with
flang. R isn't currently linked to by anything else.

Also please see the upstream requests:
