------- Comment #8 from pault at gcc dot gnu dot org 2008-02-05 12:57 ------- I just noticed that this is due to incorrect or non-existent type/kind checking in the constructor 'mytype'. With -fdefault-integer-8, yy has KIND=8, whereas the corresponding component has KIND=4, as given by the declaration. The runtime segfault is an obvious outcome.
Is the correct thing to throw an error or to quietly do the conversion? Paul -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=34143
