------- Comment #1 from burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-01-12 18:01 ------- gfortran does only create a check for ptr itself and not for ptr <-> constructor; the created check looks (with some temporary variables added) as follows: if (prt.lbound < ptr.lbound || ptr.lbound > ptr.ubound)
(It were be also great if this would not be written by gfortran as it is rather useless; though the middle end will remove it using -O.) -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34741
