Yes. The patch fixes the derived-type issue - but it doesn't solve the CHARACTER issue. As written in comment 2, the proper way is use one common code in gfc_trans_allocate, which calculates the byte size, and use it both for scalars (directly in gfc_trans_allocate) and for arrays in gfc_array_allocate -> gfc_array_init_size. (One also should evaluate the LEN= expression only once.)
