ifort omp reduction bug in versions 16.0 and 17.0

I would like to report a bug in the Intel Compiler/OpenMP implementation of ifort 16.0 and 17.0. I am not sure if it has been reported before, but I could not find anything on it. The file attachment shows a little example that reproduces the bug. It is described in the README file, and implemented in the reduction.F90 file. The bug was reproduced on different systems.

ifort 16 is for sure no longer under development, and I am not sure about ifort 17. I think it also out of cycle. Does the problem appear in ifort 18 and 19 as well?

Yes, I am aware that it may be outdated information. In fact, I noticed the bug first in Aug 2018 but had apparently reported it through the wrong channels. To answer your question: In ifort 18 the bug did not occur on the system I tested; I have not yet tried ifort 19.

Bugs in older versions are not fixed if the bug doesn't exist in the current version. If you can't reproduce it in 19, then I recommend using 19.

I tested this in 19 - it is correct there.
