I don't know anything about fortran and this isn't the best way to fix this
bug, but I was wondering if, for this kind of ABI (passing an array with a
pointer and a length IIUC), fortran guarantees that the length is non-negative?
If that's the case, could the front-end convey that information to the
middle-end using set_range_info or some other mechanism?
