The Fortran 2003 standard Section C.1.6 allows a generic procedure to have the
same name as a type , but gfotran gives "Error: DERIVED attribute of 'foo'
conflicts with PROCEDURE attribute at (1)" on the following code:

module foo_module
  type foo
    integer :: bar
  end type
  interface foo
    procedure constructor
  end interface
contains
  type(foo) function constructor()
    constructor%bar = 1
  end function
end module

I use this style throughout a textbook I'm writing because it seems like a
natural way to extend the intrinsic structure constructor syntax.  A more
extensive example of this technique is also in Figure 17.1 of Metcalf, Reid &
Cohen.
