[Bug fortran/20774] New: Debug information in .o (from FORTRAN) points to temporary file under certain circumstances

[chissg at comcast dot net]

Compiling short subroutine below (with included .inc file) produces defective
debug information referring to temporary file. Pre-processed file not included
because -save-temps option (slightly) changes the nature of the problem, and
compiling the preprocessed .f file will not exhibit the problem.

### begin cblock.inc ###
      REAL X,Y,Z
      COMMON /CBLOCK/ X,Y,Z
### end cblock.inc ###

### begin tsub.F ###
      subroutine tsub
      implicit none

      include 'cblock.inc'

      INTEGER          I2
      REAL             F1

      I2 = 3
      F1 = 1.0

      return
      end
### end tsub.F ###

### begin compile command ###
g77 -fno-automatic -v -g -I. -c tsub.F
### end compile command ###

### begin compiler output ###
g77 -fno-automatic -v -g -I. -c tsub.F

### end illustration of bug ###

### begin explanation ###
Any symbol which gets debug information referring to a temporary file will
probably be inaccessible in the debugger.

Do *any* of the following things, and the problem goes away:

  1) Remove the -fno-automatic switch

  2) Include contents of cblock.inc in tsub.F

  3) Remove the second of the two declarations in tsub.F (F1)

  4) Replace the intrinsic include directive with #include

Replacing:

INTEGER I2
REAL F1

with

INTEGER I1, I2

or

INTEGER I1
INTEGER I2

preserves the problem (the missing symbol is I2, here).

The non-optimal debugger behavior caused by this problem is the same with
ddd/gdb and with totalview.

This bug is present in gcc v3.4.1 and v3.4.3, but not in v3.3.1.

Confirmed, only a 3.4 regression as 4.0.0's fortran compiler, gfortran, does not currently support -fno-
automaticly (see PR 20592).

well, essentially the same: the compiler doesn't deal the temporary file
correctly.  Probable workaround: use the -pipe commandline option.
