[MPI3 Fortran] Specify IN/OUT/INOUT in MPI spec?

I note that none of the current Fortran API interface specifications
in MPI-2.1 list the intent of the parameters. Do we want to update
all of MPI in 3.0 to list the INTENT, and/or use "more modern Fortran
notation", e.g.:
subroutine MPI_Get_count(status, datatype, count, ierr)
integer, dimension(MPI_STATUS_SIZE), intent(in) :: status
integer, intent(in) :: datatype
integer, intent(out) :: count
integer, intent(out) :: ierr
end subroutine MPI_Get_count
This will be a big text editing job, but it is mainly monkey work /
manual labor -- it shouldn't be too complicated or complex.
