Actually I think it would be best to reject polymorphic arrays altogether for
the 4.6 release, i.e. throw an error as soon as we encounter something like

>   class(t) :: x(4)

and tell the user that this feature is not yet supported.

This would convey a much cleaner message than the various ICEs one runs into at
present. For 4.7 we can then take out the error message again, and start
implementing polymorphic arrays.
