helpful/correct
Product: gcc
Version: 4.6.0
Status: UNCONFIRMED

The error message:
call print( [ ] )
1
Error: Empty array constructor at (1) is not allowed
is misleading at only empty array constructors without typespec are invalid.
Thus, the following is valid:
call print( [ real :: ] )
Expect: Error message:
"Error: Empty array constructor at (1) is not allowed without type-spec"
or
"Error: Empty array constructor without type-spec at (1) is not allowed"
F2008:
R468 array-constructor is (/ ac-spec /)
or lbracket ac-spec rbracket
R469 ac-spec is type-spec ::
or [type-spec ::] ac-value-list
"An empty sequence forms a zero-sized array."
