Code demonstrating problems.

Hi all!

Minor nitpick, the attached program raises an error:

$ gfortran ./diag.f90
./diag.f90:10:16:

   10 |   print *, sumf(a)
      |                1
Error: Actual argument for ‘a’ must be a pointer at (1)

in both:

GNU Fortran (GCC) 9.2.1 20200307

and

GNU Fortran (GCC) 10.0.1 20200307 (experimental)

The diagnostic is a bit misleading as the variable can be pointer or target.

Thank you very much.

Best regards,
José Rui
