I took the following example:
```
program test
integer, allocatable :: x(:)

! allocate(x(3))
!dir$ prefetch x
x = x + 1

print *, x
end program
```

This works fine without any issues. There is no crash. But if you access the element in the assignment, it causes a segmentation fault, as the array is not allocated.
