[Bug fortran/24207] New: PRIVATE/PUBLIC attribute confusion screws NAMELIST

["kargl at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

The best description comes from an email by Richard Maine.

http://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2005-10/msg00073.html

Consider the following code:

  module a
   implicit none
   real b
  end module a

  module c
   use a
   implicit none
   private
   contains
      subroutine d
         namelist /e/ b
         read(5,e)
      end subroutine d
  end module c

The PRIVATE keyword in MODULE C does not effect the PUBLIC attribute of
b that is available via the USE a statement.

Note, Lahey's website says the above is conforming code.
