[Bug fortran/34296] New: Intent(out) and character functions with RESULT: Value-not-set warning

[burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org]

The following code does not give a warning:

CHARACTER(2) FUNCTION ctbgt() RESULT(ctab)
END function ctbgt

Only if one removes either the RESULT or changes CHARACTER in, e.g., INTEGER a
warning is shown.

w/ RESULT and INTEGER:
  warning: Function return value not set
w/o RESULT:
  warning: Function does not return a value

 * * *

Similarly for INTENT(OUT) arguments of procedures:

SUBROUTINE ctbgt(ctab)
  INTEGER, intent(out) :: ctab
END SUBROUTINE ctbgt
