I'm not sure I believe yet that
a <char-length> can't appear in a <derived-type-spec>. 

The case I'd worry about is something like

	TYPE NEWCHAR(L)
	INTEGER, LEN :: L
	CHARACTER*L :: C
	END TYPE

(which may not be legal Fortran 2003 but at least it's close!)

Then  NEWCHAR(L) is a derived-type-spec and L is a char-length within
the meaning of [41:20-37], isn't it?
