I looked at the discussion in the Intel Forum (c.f. comment #5) and I have
to admit that I am unsure.  Steve Lionel quotes the first two phrases of

12.3.3 Characteristics of function results

The characteristics of a function result are its type, type parameters (if
any), rank, whether it is polymorphic, whether it is allocatable, whether it is
a pointer, whether it has the CONTIGUOUS attribute, and whether it is a
procedure pointer. If a function result is an array that is not an allocatable
or pointer, its shape is a characteristic.


(I checked this with the F2k8 draft).

Steve argues that it does not say whether its actual bounds are a
characteristic.  If you assume that only the shape matters, then
the gfortran behavior is not a bug.  I think it is up to the experts
to discuss this and maybe submit an interpretation request.
