I agree and it should be applied - incl. testcase.

Hmm, the question is how to solve this properly. Is the current status
"Internal Error: bad integer kind" sufficient? I am not sure I like the idea of
silent truncation.

How about TRANSFER to "integer(8), dimension(2)" ? and then printing the
result? ("= 0" the integer before the TRANSFER.)
