In the following, the assignment to str gets truncated twice.
gfortran -Wall does not give any warning.
Expected: As similar warning as NAG gives:
Warning: trunc.f90, line 2: Initialisation expression for STR truncated
At least the first initalization should be detected, possibly also the second.
Such error messaging works for real, dimension(3) :: [1.0, 2.0, 3.0] at both
places:
Error: different shape for Array assignment at (1) on dimension 1 (2/3)

program test
character(2) :: c = 'AAA'
c = 'ABC'
print *, c
end program test
