(j3.2006) finalizing undefined entities

[Michael Ingrassia]

I'm sure we must have discussed this, but I am not finding a reference.

Can undefined entities (i.e. entities with a definition status of Undefined)
be finalized?  That seems to be required for example if an entity of
finalizable type first appears as the variable in an intrinsic assignment
statement.

The activities prescribed for finalization seem to
work better on defined entities.  I expect it will be the rare finalizer
than can operate in a standard-conforming manner when its actual
argument is undefined.
