Is it possible to check if two TARGET dummies are associated with the
same variable like this?
[code elided]
I think that's ok, but I'd have to go read and ponder a bit to be sure.
I don't know.
Suppose a compiler can determine that no pointer reference to a TARGET
dummy ever leaves a subroutine - what's stopping the compiler from
generating a temporary for that TARGET dummy?
If it does, then the pointer is possibly just associated to the dummy
argument, not necessarily to the actual argument.
