Hello world,

At the moment, gfortran silently accepts

  type, bind(c) :: a
     character(len=2,kind=c_char) :: b
  end type a

translating this into I don't know what. With the -fc-prototypes
option, we now get

typedef struct a {
    char b;
} a;

which is clearly bogus. Any user code which has the broken code above
will then likely crash and burn when using a gfortran-generated
prototype.

The attached patch solves that particular problem by issuing errors
in this case.  OK for trunk?

Regards

        Thomas

        * resolve.c (resolve_component): Ensure BIND(C) character
        components have length one.
        (resolve_symbol): Likewise for variables.
