I still see several problem with the patch applied. One is
program p character :: z = 'z' print *, repeat(z, huge(1)-2**9) end a.out(67209,0x7fff77e0b000) malloc: *** mach_vm_map(size=18446744071562067968) failed (error code=3) *** error: can't allocate region *** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug Operating system error: Cannot allocate memory Memory allocation failure in realloc on x86_64-apple-darwin15.5 with/without the patch. print *, repeat(z, huge(1)-2**9-1) "works". I’ll try to report the other problems in the PR later today. Dominique
