My initial guess is that somewhere in the middle-end is assuming
that the front-end creates only a single type for BOOLEAN_TYPE and
that this is the same as the front-end's (default) boolean_type_node.
I believe gfortran is unique in being the only GCC front-end to
have multiple precision variants of BOOLEAN_TYPE.
But I'm also confused by the strange self-referencing "loop" in
gfortran/trans-types.c, where gfc_build_logical_type can return
boolean_type_node, but boolean_type_node is (indirectly) initialized
by calling gfc_build_logical_type!? Could someone check that I'm
not missing something in gfc_init_types.
