I have not quite found why it works in one order and not the other. There is
some reading/fixup oddness. In particular, when reading in 'bar', in
module_read's fixup setup, one already has a symtree for __vtab_foo_Foo_t
available - which in principle is needed for _extension.

In any case, what we do for __vtab (as PARAMETER) is not possible in Fortran
itself. Namely, having a PARAMETER with a (non-NULL) pointer. In Fortran, it's
not allowed as one could use the parameter's pointer target in a TRANSFER.
Thus, one had to know the address at compile time. However, the address is only
known at link time. See PR 51266 and related PR 45290 and PR 51076.

While accessing __vtab_...%_extension is not possible within Fortran, the
module reading does not seem to be prepared for it.

A simple revert of comment 1 is not possible as one runs into similar problems
for __def_init - causing an ICE. Ditto for a simple revert of only class.c.

 * * *

In any case, I planing to submit the following (regtested) patch, which is a
revert of comment 1 plus FL_PARAMETER->FL_VARIABLE for __def_init plus a patch
to trans-decl.c.
