I got caught with a wild goose chase with this one. I tried to get it to work before seeing the standard reference in trans-expr.c. In fact, it would be impossible to fix because there is no way to resolve different instances of the abstract interface with different character lengths.
Bootstrapped and regtested on FC28/x86_64 - OK for trunk. I do not intend to backport it unless there is any enthusiasm for me to do so. Regards Paul 2018-06-19 Paul Thomas <pa...@gcc.gnu.org> PR fortran/49630 * resolve.c (resolve_contained_fntype): Change standard ref. from F95 to F2003: C418. Correct a spelling error in a comment. It is an error for an abstract interface to have an assumed character length result. * trans-expr.c (gfc_conv_procedure_call): Likewise change the standard reference. 2018-06-19 Paul Thomas <pa...@gcc.gnu.org> PR fortran/49630 * gfortran.dg/assumed_charlen_function_7.f90: New test.
