It is not mentioned here that this is one of the options that makes
the program behave contrary to the standard:

Confirmed. The problem is that in the function "point" a temporary
array is created to contain the repacked data of the dummy argument
"x". Thus, the pointer points to the temporary array and not to the
dummy array.

Solution: Do not repack dummy arguments with the TARGET attribute. I
filled now http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=36059

Thanks for the bug report. (Maybe I should re-read at some point the
gfortran documentation, there are options I have never heard of.)
