[RFC, Fortran, (pr66775)] Allocatable function result

[Andre Vehreschild]

Hi Mikael, hi all,

I only had the chance to check with ifort (different versions; including the most recent one) and that compiler is consistent with gfortran as it is now, I.e., the executable segfaults after the function has been called.

I am though curious what other compilers opinion on that point is.

Regards,
Andre
