G95 no longer uses these nodes. Instead we just build flat C arrays
now for multi-D Fortran arrays.. The output of the SIMPLE pretty
printer doesn't look too pretty now (full of initialization code
for array descriptors), but it works, and it seems to be faster
for assumed size/shape arrays than what we had before :-\

I'm not sure how to output debug information for Fortran arrays now.
