[Bug fortran/23373] Functions returning pointers with pointer argument

[tobi at gcc dot gnu dot org]

An alternative approach to setting up a temporary in the caller would be to have
pointer-valued functions use a fake result variable, which only immediately
before returning gets assigned to the real result.  This would allow the
optimizers to do a good job if nothing bad can happen.
