Not sure if we can create a testcase that will eventually ICE though. Usually the above also means that the arrays use different alias sets but that's safe here because the alias set of an array is that of its element (and those are compatible here). The issue is that in C a[2][3] is ARRAY_TYPE <ARRAY_TYPE <...> > but GFortran represents a(2)(3) as 1D ARRAY_TYPE <...> and thus both types are not structurally equivalent (which is why LTO warns). Not sure if this case is motivation enough to treat arrays structurally the same if their overall size is the same.
