[Bug libfortran/21881] Array descriptors limit derived type sizes

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

I think this is related to the check in trans-types.c:

  if (size && INTEGER_CST_P (size))
    {
      if (tree_int_cst_lt (gfc_max_array_element_size, size))
        internal_error ("Array element size too big");

      i += TREE_INT_CST_LOW (size) << GFC_DTYPE_SIZE_SHIFT;
    }
  dtype = build_int_cst (gfc_array_index_type, i);

which is triggered by code such as:

  type t
    integer i001(268435456)
  end type t

  type(t), allocatable :: x(:)

  allocate(x(1))
  print *, size(x)
  print *, shape(x)
  end
