--- Comment #7 from Tobias Burnus <burnus at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
gcc/fortran/options.c's gfc_post_options contains:
/* FIXME: return gfc_cpp_preprocess_only ();
The return value of this function indicates whether the
backend needs to be initialized. On -E, we don't need
the backend. However, if we return 'true' here, an
ICE occurs. Initializing the backend doesn't hurt much,
hence, for now we can live with it as is. */
return false;
* * *
If one returns true, it indeed fails with a segfault.
* * *
For C, its LANG_HOOKS_INIT (= c_objc_common_init) has:
if (c_common_init () == false)
return false;
which returns "false" for flag_preprocess_only.
I think, we have to do something similar for gfortran's LANG_HOOKS_INIT (=
gfc_init).
