In contrast to the patch I sent earlier, the version attached here
also fixes the second error in the PR, which I almost forgot about
("Error: The element in the derived type constructor at (1), for
pointer component '$extends', is DERIVED but should be DERIVED").

Although the patch obviously works, I'm not sure if it may have any
negative consequences and if it's the best thing to do. At least it
fixes the test case and regtests cleanly.

Comments? Suggestions? Ok for trunk?

Cheers,
Janus
