Bug ID: 78271 Summary: Fortran, additional pointer type for deferred length strings Product: gcc Version: 6.2.1 Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P3 Component: debug Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org Reporter: bernhard.heckel at intel dot com Target Milestone: --- Created attachment 40002 --> https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/attachment.cgi?id=40002&action=edit Debug info Gfortran Debug info for deferred length strings have additional pointer type, which is wrong in my opinion.

Same to "vare" Fortran reproducer is from here: PR78212 Attached also debug info generated by ICC
