Hi Paul,

no, I don't have an example in mind out of the box.
May be something like:

type :: T
  character :: s(:)
  character :: c
end type

class(T) :: foo(2)

But that is just a guess. I was triggered only by the first condition your
patch removes, where span was used instead of the of element-size. I was more
or less just curious. Let's see what time brings to our regression shores.
