With the patch that I have readied for PR24092, gfortran does fine with the pointer case; Lahey, Intel and Digital all barf on it. It seems that recursion detection is done in the commercial compilers by demanding that derived type components are already specified. I do not see this anywhere in the standard and so have built a little recusion detector for resolve.c..... I will endeavour to clarify this point before heading off on a trip tomorrow night.
