is accepted by gfortran. Other compilers give the correct error:
fortcom: Error: aaa.f, line 3: A namelist-group-object must not be a variable
with assumed character length (R544.1). [ERRMSG]
Error: bbb.f90, line 4: Namelist-group-object C has assumed character length
Error: Variable 'c' at (1) cannot have a variable length and be in a NAMELIST
ERROR: "C" has the CHARACTER*(*) attribute, therefore it must not be declared
as a namelist-group-object.
