Sounds like the right place. Care should be taken because lengths are not
required to be constants, like in the following:

  call foo(8, "short")
  call foo(2, "lenghty")
contains
  subroutine foo(n,s)
    character(len=*) s
    integer n
    print *, [ character(len=n) :: 'test', s ]
  end subroutine
end

(I haven't yet found a compiler that does compile this and run it fine.)
