Please find attached a fix for this PR.
I think the discussion of intent muddied the waters for this PR. As I
understand it initialisation of variables implies the save attribute.
The save attribute is incompatible with the dummy attribute so an error
should be output when initialisation is attempted for dummy variables.
Is this correct?
Yes, this is correct; this is C808:
# (R803) An initialization shall not appear if object-name is a dummy
# argument, a function result, an object in a named common block unless
#+ the type declaration is in a block data program unit, an object in
# blank common, an allocatable variable, or an automatic data object.
If so OK to commit and backport?
OK for master. This is not a regression, so a backport is not needed.
If you do decide to backport, please wait until gcc 10 has reopened
after the release of 10.2, on the off chance that this does introduce
a regression.
Thanks for the patch! It is always good to see the removal
of code result in a bug fix :-)
Best regards
Thomas
