I second that! I had missed PR20244 - it is a kind of fault that I 
thought that I had eliminated. It is definitely not a newbie project and 
is, apparently, a bit beyond my skills(!).

A workaround is to eliminate the USE statement in the subroutine. You 
can see what is going wrong by examining the file atest.mod: it contains 
two separate definitions for t1. Unfortunately, the code choses the 
wrong one.

Steve's suggested project is a good one - go for it!
