BUG: Illegal Formal Argument and -Zi Crash Compiler

SYMPTOMS

Using FORTRAN PowerStation to compile a file that contains a subprogram using a formal argument that has the same name as that subprogram may produce the following errors under Windows NT: These error messages are then followed by a stack overflow exception.

When using FORTRAN PowerStation for MS-DOS, the F2209 error is generated. If compiling from the Visual Workbench, the following errors also occur: The F2040 and F2037 errors scroll repeatedly showing negative line numbers, until finally the compiler crashes with a DX1020 general protection (GP) fault error. The F2040 and F2037 errors do not occur if compiled from the MS-DOS command line, but the DX1020 error does.

In all cases the F2209 error is correct.
