On second thought, I'm not so sure about this. Is this actually allowed by the
Fortran standard? (If not, one could think about allowing it only with
--std=gnu as an extension.)

Well, no. We don't need to set 'attr.is_c_interop', but 'ts.is_c_interop',
which can also be done for constants. I'm right now testing a patch which does
so and fixes the regression.
