After carefully reading the interpretation request,
http://www.j3-fortran.org/doc/year/08/08-172.txt, I think the reason that it is
invalid in Fortran 95/2003 is that only variables are definable and as "f()" is
not a variable, it is invalid.
Fortran 2008 has (cf. PR 40054):
R602 variable is designator
or expr
C602 (R602) expr shall be a reference to a function that has a pointer
result."
Which makes the program valid.
