Are you sure it is gfortran and not some other program that introduces this?
Do you see it in gfortran-mp-13 -gdwarf-4 -S output?
Or in the object file with -c?  Then it could be introduced by the
assembler.
Or it could be introduced by the linker or by other tools (dsymutil?).

If you think it is a gfortran bug, please file a bug about it in
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/ , I know next to nothing about Darwin and
would strongly prefer not to learn anything further about it.
