Not yet but soon, patience.  The proposed Fortran 8x has structures, 
pointers, and a heap.  For example you'll be able to build linked lists 
by doing something like this:

TYPE ITEM
  REAL VALUE
  TYPE(ITEM),POINTER :: NEXTITEM
END TYPE ITEM

TYPE(ITEM),POINTER :: STACK, NEWITEM
NULLIFY(STACK)

ALLOCATE(NEWITEM)             
NEWITEM = ITEM(3.7,STACK)
STACK => NEWITEM

(I can't help it, they send me this stuff in the mail.)
