Incorrect "Name already used" errors

[jmcfarland101]

The attached source code file demonstrates two compiler errors that appear to be incorrect. When compiled as is (with sub1 commented out), the compiler states that "grad" has "already been used as an external function name", which it has not -- here the code should compile.

A second error can be produced if sub1 is uncommented and sub2 and sub3 are commented out. Here the code should not compile, but the compiler error is misleading: it says that "grad" has "already been used as a dummy function name". A different compiler gives me a more correct error for this case: "'pointer' argument of 'associated' interinsic must be a POINTER".

I had hoped that Update 5 would resolve all the issues related to procedure pointers, but this appears not to be the case. I have escalated the fiirst issue as DPD200151017. I will escalate the second one soon.

For the second problem, the developers tell me that they're not going to change the message for this error. The message is correct, though I understand that you'd prefer a different one.

The inappropriate error with the original source is fixed in 11.1 Update 6.
