Gfortran is wrong.  The INTEGER declaration in BAR declares MY as a 
local variable, thus overriding the host association of MY as the 
subroutine from the main program.  Thus, as far as NAMELIST is 
concerned, this is an ordinary integer variable.

I seem to recall that there have been weird glitches with host 
association before; this is presumably just more of the same.
