Florian,

PR26974 has:
  integer, parameter :: len = 1
  integer :: arr(max(len,1)) = (/1/)

while your testcase contains:
  integer, parameter :: l = 1
  integer, parameter :: arr(max(l,1)) = (/1/)

where the only difference is the additional PARAMETER declaration for ARR. I 
can reproduce the problem with gfortran-{4.1.2|4.2|4.3}. Intel and Sun 
compilers remain silent. So, I'd think, this is a bug.

If nobody else objects, please open a new PR. 

Thanks :)

	Daniel
