My point is this:
As you said in your first comment, there is no ambiguity in your code. 
vector is defined in only one module which is used when needed in other
modules.
Moreover you use private statements to prevent use associated entities from
being exported in those modules. 
Doing this way, no module but class_vector exports vector. No ambiguity
possible
What my example shows is that tools_math (and other modules in your code)
export vector as well. Ambiguities are possible. 

As gfortran seems to handle simple ambiguities correctly, what I'm underlying
is not the bug, but it might be part of it.
