Runtime error with polymorphic pointer

[MDK]

[plain]module ifort_bug_mod

    implicit none
    
    type :: base_t
        integer :: dummy = 0
    end type
    
end module


program ifort_bug

    use ifort_bug_mod
    
    implicit none
    type(base_t), pointer :: p_ok => null()
    class(base_t), pointer :: p_err => null()
    type(base_t), target :: base

    p_ok => base ! ok
    p_err => base  ! runtime error

end program[/plain]

As far as I can tell this is a compiler bug (v11.1.051). As you can see, simply associating a polymorphic pointer with a target causes a runtime error.

That's a bug introduced in v11.1.051. I already reported in in following thread:

As a workaround, you can disable Diagnostics->Generate Interface Blocks and Diagnostics->Check Routine Interfaces. See the above mentioned thread for details.
