<summary>Changes</summary>

Fortran allows forward references to type names, which can lead to ambiguity when coupled with host association, as in:

  module m
    type ambiguous; integer n; end type
   contains
    subroutine s
      type(ambiguous), pointer :: variable
      type t
        type(ambiguous), pointer :: component
      end type
      type ambiguous; real x; end type
    end
  end

Some other compilers resolve to a host association, some resolve to a forward reference.  This compiler will now emit an error.
