[Bug fortran/47359] New: Recursive functions of intrinsic names generates invalid assembler


http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=47359

           Summary: Recursive functions of intrinsic names generates
                    invalid assembler
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P3
         Component: fortran
        AssignedTo: unassigned@gcc.gnu.org
        ReportedBy: roger.ferrer@bsc.es


I know this is sort of a contrived case but seems that gfortran is getting
confused in this case leading to syntactically invalid assembler.

RECURSIVE FUNCTION MAX(A, B) RESULT(K)
  IF (B >= 0) THEN
         K = MAX(A+1, B-1)
  ELSE
     K = A
  END IF
END

$ gfortran -c test.f90 -save-temps
test.s:11: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `('
test.s:12: Error: unrecognized symbol type ""
test.s:12: Error: junk at end of line, first unrecognized character is `('
test.s:13: Error: Unrecognized opcode: `__(intrinsic)__max:'
test.s:73: Error: expected comma after name `__' in .size directive
$ cat -n test.s 
  ...
    11        .globl __(intrinsic)__max
    12        .type    __(intrinsic)__max, @function
    13    __(intrinsic)__max:
  ...
    73        .size    __(intrinsic)__max,.-__(intrinsic)__max


My guess is that gfortran is picking the intrinsic 'max' function symbol
instead of the one being currently defined (which is recursive and thus is
eligible to be called in its same body, isn't it?)

I don't know how much conformant this is to Fortran standard but Intel Fortran
and IBM XL Fortran did not complain and successfully generated an object file. 

If this is not valid Fortran, an error message is better than a cryptic
assembler syntax error :)
