Re: do we expect compiler to catch this?

This is a quality of implementation issue, not than a correctness issue.  It

with an explicit interface (as in the case of an intrinsic), we should probably
catch this.  Which we don't:
schluter@pcl247d:~/src> cat t.f90
CALL f(1.)
CONTAINS
subroutine f(x)
 intent(out) :: x
 x = 2.
end subroutine f
end

That's an internal, not an intrinsic. :)

(However, intrinsics, like internals, do have explicit interfaces.)
