This error message is consistent with the Fortran 2003 rules. An
(non-abstract) interface declares the procedure name to be external.
However, in the case of a separate binding label, that rule is being
changed in Fortran 2008 to be the way you want it. If there is a
separate binding label then the procedure's name becomes a local name,
not external.
