This program compiles with GCC 4.5 (and fails with 4.6/4.7) - thus, I marked the PR as regression. Better example (still based on periodic_6th_order.F90). The SELECT TYPE is crucial, a simple ASSOCIATE or BLOCK won't do: call move_alloc (x, func) 1 Error: 'to' argument of 'move_alloc' intrinsic at (1) must be a variable The program type :: t end type t contains function func(x, y) class(t) :: y ! Dummy variable type(t), allocatable :: func ! Can also be CLASS type(t), allocatable :: x ! Can also be CLASS ! call move_alloc (x, func) ! <<< Works select type (y) type is(t) call move_alloc (x, func) ! << Error (but no select variable involved) end select end function end
