Before someone asks, the error is about the renaming of the specific
versions of foobar
as in
use foo_mod, protect => s_foobar
Can you provide the text of the error message?

Actually the culprit is gfortran, the error message is
Error: Name 'foobar' at (1) is an ambiguous reference to 'foobar' from
module 's_foo_mod'

At first I thought it was about the renaming, but it seems to be
something more fundamental; anyway there is nothing ambiguous in this
example (at least, nothing that I can see, and Richard Maine seems to
think the same).

Which version of gfortran? I know that there have been some hiccups
with handling ambiguity (or lack of some) properly, so you may have run
into a bug which was fixed in 4.3 or newer.

It's in both 4.3.0 and in the development snapshot. The issue has
already been notifed to the GCC/gfortran crew.
