We require the passed-object dummy argument to be scalar.

Would there be a technical problem if it were allowed to be an array, at
least in the case it has INTENT(IN)?

I tried to create a generic "dump" binding that would dump a scalar,
using a type-bound routine with a scalar passed-object dummp argument,
and another one with a rank-one passed-object dump argument.  The array
dump just iterated over the elements and called the scalar one.
