The patch set looks okay. I am not 100% sure how compatible your changes
are with regards to finalization and coarray components, but I have the
impression they don't make thinks worse.
Regarding the comment:
"A data-pointer-returning function should be considered as a variable
too."
That's actually true according to the standard, which since F2008 allows:
f() = 7
where f() returns a pointer. Well, gfortran doesn't support this yet and
there are also some issues if the LHS is an operator expression (see
current interpretation request discussions), but I thought I mention it
for completeness.
Thanks for the patch! - And for the thorough patch reviews!
