+F2PY supports the value attribute
+=================================
+
+The Fortran standard requires that variables declared with the ``value``
+attribute must be passed by value instead of reference. F2PY now supports this
+use pattern correctly. So ``integer, intent(in), value :: x`` in Fortran codes
+will have correct wrappers generated.
