It regresses in class_41.f03 because of the interface mapping mechanism for
character length.  There is a type mismatch between the dummy argument (of a
base type) and the corresponding actual argument (of an extended type).  The
shadow symbol created for interface mapping has the base type, but its backend
decl has the extended type.  It works without the patch because the missing
"_data" reference is implicitly added by conv_parent_component_references (and
it is the "_data" component of the extended type).  It fails with the patch
because the "_data" component is added explicitly, but as we are working with
the frontend structures we add the "_data" component of the base type.  When
translating with the extended type declaration we don't find the right
component and fail because of the type mismatch.
