------- Comment #7 from tobias dot burnus at physik dot fu-berlin dot de 2006-06-17 10:57 ------- The test case of comment #4 is invalid as the Fortran standard says that a pointer is undefined unless it is associated (allocated, assigned) or deassociated (nullifyed). In this case it is undefined. (What gfortran should do in this case is a matter of taste, crashing is completely acceptable.)
However, the test case of comment #3 is valid Fortran 2003, nonetheless gfortran crashes here, which should be fixed (and seems to be fixed by patch in comment 6). -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=26801
