It's http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=33638

I first hoped to get help to narrow things a bit further, as my
problem is really a bit strange, so I decided to first write an email.
I simply assigned it now to the middle-end, but of course it could 
also be a gfortran issue.

Thanks,
Manfred
