------- Comment #2 from jvdelisle at gcc dot gnu dot org 2007-06-06 01:59 ------- The problem is here in resolve.c:
static int generic_sym (gfc_symbol *sym) { gfc_symbol *s; if (sym->attr.generic || (sym->attr.intrinsic && gfc_generic_intrinsic (sym->name))) return 1; if (was_declared (sym) || sym->ns->parent == NULL) return 0; gfc_find_symbol (sym->name, sym->ns->parent, 1, &s); return (s == NULL) ? 0 : generic_sym (s); } gfc_find_symbol is returning the same symbol that is called with generic_sym and thus we are in an infinite loop, calling genric_sym with that same symbol over and over again. I think this is related to 32157. gfortran does not discriminate symbols of the same name but with different scope or type. -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=31609
