- Fortran avoids an ICE when submodule functions return pointers.
- tldr

This commit resolves an Internal Compiler Error (ICE) that occurred in the Fortran frontend when a submodule function implicitly declared a pointer as its result. Previously, such declarations would lead to an unclassifiable statement error and subsequent ICE or compiler confusion. The fix prevents the compiler from erroneously committing a new symbol for the implicit result when it’s already recognized as part of the module procedure.
