My preference is to check in the TER code which exposes this bug, and
open a PR against the failure with this info. That way we don't lose
track of the problem, and someone can fix it at their leisure. Until
then there will be a testsuite failure in gfortran for the testcase
which triggers this.
Does that seem reasonable? or would everyone prefer I get it fixed
before checking in the TER code?
No, IMHO.
It's unfortunate enough if a patch introduces a bug that we only find
later. It's Very Bad And Very Wrong to allow in patches that cause
test suite failures.
Frankly, I don't understand why you even ask. We have rules for
testing for a reason.
