To clarify the clarification, there is no statement

                           DO ALLI = 1, N

in FORTRAN 77.  All DO statements in FORTRAN 77 have a statement label, e.g.,

                           DO 10 ALLI = 1, N

The form without a statement label is an extension.  I believe the most common
definition of this extension is in Mil. Std. 1753.  The form without a
statement label is also contained in the proposed Fortran 90.
