Steve Lionel claims the code is invalid and NAG also rejects it, which is a
good indication that it is indeed invalid - even though at a glance I thought
the code is valid.

gfortran compiles the following without warning or error:


module hostassoc
  implicit none

  interface pack
     module procedure pack_sub
  end interface

contains

  subroutine pack_sub ()
  end subroutine pack_sub

  subroutine foo (a)
    integer, intent(in) :: a(:)
!   intrinsic :: pack               ! Try uncommenting this line...
    print *, pack (a, a /= 0)
  end subroutine foo

end module hostassoc

  The key to this is paragraph number 5 on p286 of F2008 (12.4.3.4.5
  Restrictions on generic declarations).  It says:

  Within the scope of a generic name that is the same as the generic name
  of an intrinsic procedure, the intrinsic procedure is not accessible by
  its generic name if the procedures in the interface and the intrinsic
  procedure are not all functions or not all subroutines.

  In your case with the INTRINSIC commented out, the PACK intrinsic is
  made inaccessible because your generic PACK has a subroutine as one of
  the interfaces.  Since the intrinsic is inaccessible, the reference to
  PACK as a function fails.

  If you uncomment the INTRINSIC, then you are violating constraint C1215
  (F2008) "Within the scope of a generic name, each pair of procedures
  identified by that name shall both be subroutines or both be functions"
