IR F08/0086, http://www.j3-fortran.org/doc/year/13/13-235r1.txt allows the
following, which is currently rejected by:

Q1. Consider
Program test1
Character(*) a,b(*)
Dimension c(*)
Parameter (a='123', b=['1','2','3'])
Character(*),Parameter :: c = [ '44','55','66' ]
Print *,a,b,c
End
[...]
Q2. Consider
Subroutine test2(a)
Real,Dimension(*) :: a,c
Parameter (c = [ 45.6 ])
a(b) = c
End Subroutine

ANSWER:
A1. Yes, the program was intended to conform to the Fortran standard.
An edit is provided to modify the requirement for prior
specification so as to allow this case.
A2. Yes, the program is intended to conform to the Fortran standard.
An edit is provided to add syntax to permit this unambiguously.
