janus at gcc dot gnu.org changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Known to fail| | --- Comment #5 from janus at gcc dot gnu.org 2012-04-26 11:49:14 UTC --- With gfortran 4.6.3 and later I get: myfortran_error(1:1) = chararr(1) 1 Error: The pointer object 'chararr' at (1) must have an explicit function interface or be declared as array The error message is not extremely clear about what is wrong, but at least there is no ICE any more. Is it worth to improve the error message, or should we just close this one?
