Hi Thomas, I discovered the bit about the ChangeLogs last night but thanks for the warning:-)
The commit message reads: This patch fixes PR96320. See the explanatory comment in the testcase. 2020-08-01 Paul Thomas <pa...@gcc.gnu.org> gcc/fortran PR target/96320 * interface.c (gfc_check_dummy_characteristics): If a module procedure arrives with assumed shape in the interface and deferred shape in the procedure itself, update the latter and copy the lower bounds. gcc/testsuite/ PR target/96320 * gfortran.dg/module_procedure_4.f90 : New test. Setting standard F2003 results in a whole pile of errors, starting with: ../pr96320/pr96320.f90:19:12: 19 | module subroutine bar1(arg) | 1 Error: Fortran 2008: MODULE prefix at (1) and a bit later: ../pr96320/pr96320.f90:23:12: 23 | module subroutine bar2(arg) | 1 Error: Fortran 2008: MODULE prefix at (1) Cheers Paul On Sat, 1 Aug 2020 at 10:54, Thomas Koenig <tkoe...@netcologne.de> wrote: > Hi Paul, > > > This is my first foray into gfortran for quite a little while so I am > going > > cautiously on this 'obvious' patch.
