           Summary: ICE with character pointer in function
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.6.0
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: fortran
        AssignedTo: unassig...@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: jvdeli...@gcc.gnu.org


I am not sure this is valid code, but it gives and ICE.  There is no ICE if the
ptmp pointer is removed or the function is compiled outside the program block.

program bug

contains
function get_cstring (c_str, maxlen, c_term_char)
  use iso_c_binding, only: c_ptr, c_char, c_null_char
  character(kind=c_char, len=maxlen)     :: get_cstring
  character(kind=c_char,len=1), optional :: c_term_char
  character(kind=c_char), pointer        :: ptmp
  type(c_ptr)                            :: c_str
  integer                                :: i, maxlen

  call c_f_pointer (c_str, ptmp)
  do i=1,maxlen
    get_cstring(i:i) = ptmp(i)
    if (ptmp(i) == c_null_char) goto 10

    if (present(c_term_char).and.ptmp(i) == c_term_char) goto 10
  end do
  return
 10 continue
end function

end program
