[gfortran] PATCH -- Fix segfault in RANDOM_SEED.

["Steven G. Kargl" <kargls at comcast dot net>]

This patch fixes a segfault when using the PUT 
argument of RANDOM_SEED.  There, however, is a
major problem with the current PRNG.  This 
simple program appears to trigger an alarmingly
bad sequence of numbers.

   program s
   integer, allocatable :: a(:)
   integer i,n
   real x(10)
   call random_seed(size=n)
   allocate(a(n))
   a = (/ (i, i = 1, n) /)
   call random_seed(put=a)
   call random_number(x)
   do i = 1, 10
      print '(I2,2X,E15.6)', i, x(i)
   end do
   end program s
