I think there are two issues:

a) There is a bogus warning. I think that's a middle-end bug

b) The same warning should be triggered for "PRIVATE" and for "PRIVATE ::
hello_integer"

However, the Fortran front end only checks sym->attr.access == ACCESS_PRIVATE,
which obviously doesn't get set by "PRIVATE". (See patch below.) That's a
missed-optimization issue.


Simplified example (compile with -Wall or -Wunused-function):

module mod_say_hello
    private :: hello_integer
contains
    subroutine say_hello()
        call hello_integer(123)
    end subroutine say_hello
    subroutine hello_integer( a )
        integer, intent(in) ::  a
        print *, "Hello ", a, "!"
    end subroutine hello_integer
end module mod_say_hello
