... for whatever reason. I hope this one will make it through.

Ok, thanks. I hadn't noticed the codimension problem.

No, it's not. F03:7.4.1.2 is about intrinsic assignments, just like F08:7.2.1.2.

However, F03:7.2.1.2 is not (maybe this is what you were looking at?).

Ok, looks better to me. After the realloc-on-assign is fully
implemented, one should replace the "not implemented" error by a
gfc_notify_std, of course (where the F03:7.2.1.2 reference would still
make sense).

Yes, fine with me. Thanks for the patch.

That would be great, it's been hanging in there for a while now ...

Cheers,
