Well, to be more exact, the result of transfer() has the type of its 2nd argument. In transfer(ii8,z'1000'), the BOZ may have a kind type parameter of 8 or 16 depending on the target; while the INTEGER(4) ii8 can only supply 32 bits. Note, the documentation for transfer() already describes this situation without explicitly mentioning BOZ literal constants. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=44489
