[Bug fortran/32331] New: Better error message for variable bond of DATA implied do

[burnus at gcc dot gnu dot org]

subroutine test(n)
    character(len=20), dimension(n) :: string
    data ( string(i) ,i=1,n ) / &
        'A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E' /
end subroutine

gives currently:
    data ( string(i) ,i=1,n ) / &
                         1
Error: iterator end at (1) does not simplify

which is unclear, how about something like:

ifort: Error: x.f90, line 3: This symbol must be a defined parameter or an
argument of an inquiry function that evaluates to a compile-time constant.  
[N]
or
NAG f95: Error: Static array STRING cannot have variable bounds
