I have looked a litte bit closer to the patch in comment #4. AFAICT it implements what gfc_evaluate_now does with the difference that var = gfc_create_var (TREE_TYPE (expr), NULL); is replaced with + tree tmp = gfc_create_var (gfc_charlen_type_node, "slength"); Has "slength" any chance to make a difference compared to NULL? -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=35937
