Well. In https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/fortran/2015-12/msg00005.html Janne
Blomqvist suggested to use the symbol table some more, but i admit i
have not yet tried to understand what that means in the context of the
patch referenced in above mail from december.
That said, i'm with Andre WRT memory fragmentation but maybe that's
not an issue on hosts where gcc is usually run.

I would, however, like to know if there is concensus about such
buffers in gfortran. Do we want them to be heap based or stack based?

thanks,
