           Summary: Pointer to variable length array, debug info
           Product: gcc
           Version: 4.8.3
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

Fortran sample

Current behaviour:
A pointer to an variable length array (VLA) is declared in the dwarf debug_info
as an array with the "associated attribute". 


Expectation is to see a pointer type which has an array as target type as
described here:

- Gfortran generated dwarf info
- Expected dwarf info
