Hello,

this is about a pointer bounds remapping regression introduced at
http://gcc.gnu.org/r190641
That revision introduced support for se.descriptor_only in
gfc_conv_expr_descriptor with this hunk:

The problem comes from gfc_trans_pointer_assign, which uses several
times the same gfc_se struct, the first time with descriptor_only set,
the other times without clearing it.
This was not a problem before the above change, because the flag wasn't
looked at.
After the change however, one should make sure that descriptor_only is
not inherited from a previous use.

The fix proposed clears the flag upon reuse, which should match exactly
the original behaviour, making it rather safe, and suitable also for the
branches.
I have to admit that I'm not completely satisfied with it however.
I would prefer no GFC_SE reuse at all, namely collect every piece of
code in a separate struct, and merge them later explicitly into a block.
 Alas, the code is not exactly straightforward to my eyes, and my
attempt in that direction to sneak some orthogonality in that madness
failed.

Anyway, regression tested on x86_64-linux, OK for trunk/4.9/4.8 ?
