--- Comment #8 from Tobias Burnus <burnus at gcc dot gnu.org> 2011-12-19 11:39:55 UTC --- Created attachment 26139 --> http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=26139 Draft patch (for the rejects-valid part, not for the ICE) Draft patch, which allows again ptr => associate-name It also fixes an ICE ("class_ok" part, "(a)") and issues with coarrays and select type. [Coarrays now fail after resolution with an ICE.] Test cases (a) to (d): type t end type t class(t), target :: p1 ! (a) Invalid (was ICEing before) !class(t), allocatable, target :: p1 ! (b) Valid (unchanged by the patch) !class(t), allocatable :: p1 ! (c) Correctly fails (ditto) !class(t), pointer :: p1 ! (d) Valid (now accepted) class(t), pointer :: p2 select type(p1) type is(t) p2 => p1 class is(t) p2 => p1 end select end * * * Having fixed the rejects-valid issue, one again hits: internal compiler error: in gfc_trans_block_construct, at fortran/trans-stmt.c:1215 1209 ns = code->ext.block.ns; 1211 sym = ns->proc_name; 1215 gcc_assert (!sym->tlink); Here, "sym->name" is "eval_int_expr" and sym->tlink == sym. The issue is seemingly the following code in an internal procedure: integer_or_logical: select type(symbol_ptr) ... end select integer_or_logical and then another internal procedure: subroutine integer_or_logical( expr_str, flag) ... end subroutine integer_or_logical recursive subroutine eval_int_expr( int_expr, value) The label "integer_or_logical" of the block some clashes with the same-named subroutine - and thus marks the subroutine which follows somehow as EXPR_BLOCK?!?
