Who is right? I'm inclined to claim that gfortran is wrong. Especially
since the error only occures when "namespace" is present.

---------------
program main
  implicit none
contains
  subroutine my
  end subroutine my
  subroutine bar
    integer :: my
    namelist /ops/ my
  end subroutine bar
end program main

Gfortran is wrong. The INTEGER declaration in BAR declares MY as a local variable, thus overriding the host association of MY as the subroutine from the main program. Thus, as far as NAMELIST is concerned, this is an ordinary integer variable.

I seem to recall that there have been weird glitches with host association before; this is presumably just more of the same.
