Hi Mikael,

Fine with me.

0 in this case means that you need no array temporary. This is fine.

Unfortunately not. The original code (before I lifted out the
functionality) sometimes had GFC_DEP_ERROR at the end of the
function, which was then removed by
return fin_dep == GFC_DEP_OVERLAP;
(In other words, if you put a gcc_unreachable there, you get
regressions.).
I can add a comment that this is intentional.

So, OK with a comment why this appears? Or should I simply
rename GFC_DEP_ERROR to GFC_DEP_NODEPFOUND to make this a bit
clearer?
