(j3.2006) are selectors allowed to be procedures ?

[Jim Xia]

I know the selectors in ASSOCIATE or SELECT TYPE are meant to be used as 
data object.  But where in the standard it says it can not be a procedure? 
 The example


    interface
        subroutine foo
        end subroutine
    end interface

    interface
        function func (i)
            import foo
            procedure(foo), pointer :: func
        end function
    end interface

    associate (x => func(10))
        call x
    end associate
    end


Should we explicitly disallow this?
