Ok, since no one has dared yet to criticize my patch, I'll start with
some self-criticism:

The patch as posted does fix the test case in comment #0 of the PR,
but only if it comes in a single file (as in class_34.f90). Otherwise,
if I put the modules/main program into separate files and compile them
via

gfortran-4.6 m0.f90 m1.f90 m2.f90 p.f90

I still get:

/tmp/ccWGdkZv.o: In function `__copy_m0_t_':
m2.f90:(.text+0x0): multiple definition of `__copy_m0_t_'
/tmp/cc6cc0qj.o:m1.f90:(.text+0x6d): first defined here

Fortunately there is a workaround for this: It is cured by using
-fwhole-program. However, we probably do not want OOP codes to rely on
non-default switches like -fwhole-program.

One simple alternative that just came to my mind: The whole problem
would go away if the __copy_ routine would undergo the same name
mangling as all standard module procedures, i.e. getting a prefix like
"__m1_" or "__m2_". When looking for the reason, I came up with the
attached two-line patch, which seems to fix the issue for both the
single-file as well as multi-file setup, and is much simpler than the
previous approach (not regtested yet).

Cheers,
Janus

this approach looks very good.

OK if it passes regtesting.

Thanks for the patch!

Thanks for the review, Thomas. Regtest passed without failures.

I will wait for feedback from Salvatore (who promised to try the patch
on his code) before committing.

Cheers,
Janus

As this was apparently successful, I just committed the patch as r168464.

As a consequence, the OOP regression count has basically dropped to
zero (expect for one, which is not a real regression*).

Cheers,
Janus


* PR46262: Technically it *is* a regression, since it gives an ICE
which was not there for 4.5. However, 4.5 generated wrong code for the
test case, which means it was never *really* working.

Thanks Janus!

Keep up the good work!

Thanks to everyone for keeping at it!
