Constraint C7109 says that a BOZ constant is allowed as an actual argument. It does not say it is allowed as a value expression in an array constructor.

All 5 compilers I tried, including 2 versions of gfortran, along with Cray, Intel, and PGI, compiled the program and produced the same output. I suspect it works because INT is elemental, so the function is applied to each element of the array separately.
