buggy program

When I declare a pointer in main routine:
>> CLASS(sparseMatrix_t), pointer :: sparseMatrix

Then I pass this pointer to a subroutine
>> call test(sparseMatrix)

I get a compiler error message:
>> Error: Actual argument to 'matrix' at (1) must have the same declared type

Please find attached a small program that does not work and fails compiling
with this error. I find this fault in gfortran-4.6.1 and gfortran-4.7.0
20111210.
I compiled with 'gfortran main.f90'.
