Ok, I admit that I had to look up the asterisk thingy. It's called "alternate
return" and is a obsolescent feature since at least F95.

According to PR 40881, we should have a warning message for this, but it does
not seem to trigger for the test case here. Should be fixed I guess (just as
the ICE, although combining obsolescent features like alternate return with new
stuff such as type binding is surely not recommended).
