--- Comment #3 from kargl at gcc dot gnu.org ---
The ICE is due to the gcc_assert in 

svn annotate trans-decl.c
...
 84542     pbrook    if (TREE_CODE (length) != INTEGER_CST)
 81764   dnovillo       {
 81764   dnovillo         gfc_finish_var_decl (length, sym);
 87187     pbrook         gcc_assert (!sym->value);
 81764   dnovillo       }

Removing the gcc_assert allows the code to compile.  There
are no regression caused by the removal.  Given that 87187
was a long time ago, I wonder if the assert makes sense.
