--- Comment #5 from Dominique d'Humieres <dominiq at lps dot ens.fr> --- Assuming that the test gfortran.dg/module_private_2.f90 at http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2011-01/msg00094.html is intended to cover the issue at hand and considering that adding the test to the gfortran test suite does not trigger any regression, I plan to close this PR as fixed as soon as the test posted at https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2015-11/msg00045.html has been accepted and committed.
