Description of problem: The attached test.F90 contains a subroutine which constructs a temporary array of strings from one of its own input strings. The code will compile, but the resulting program crashes when run. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gcc-gfortran-4.1.2-12 (latest gfortran for Fedora 7 i686 and x86_64) gcc-gfortran-4.1.1-52.el5.2 (latest gfortran for RHEL 5 ia64) How reproducible: Always (at least on the i686, x86_64, and ia64 boxes I've tried it on) Steps to Reproduce: 1. Compile the test program with 'gfortran -g test.F90' 2. Run it with './a.out' Actual results: Program crashes with a segmentation fault. gdb output suggests that the heap is corrupted: Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. 0x4f793756 in _int_free () from /lib/libc.so.6 (gdb) bt #0 0x4f793756 in _int_free () from /lib/libc.so.6 #1 0x4f797430 in free () from /lib/libc.so.6 #2 0x4f8f50c1 in _gfortran_internal_free () from /usr/lib/libgfortran.so.1 #3 0x0804874e in __testmod__test_sub (padstr=@0xbf912523, strarr=@0xbf9124d3, _padstr=5, _strarr=80) at test.F90:14 #4 0x080487f0 in MAIN__ () at test.F90:27 #5 0x08048827 in main () Expected results: Program should run to completion (as in fact it does when compiled with NAG, PGI or Intel Fortran compilers).
