If the C pointer "lower_bounds" is a null pointer, the lower bounds of the result are the lower bounds of the source; otherwise, the lower bounds of the result are the values of the array addressed by the C pointer "lower_bounds".

I don't see those words in the spec – I only see words related to SOURCE 
and not to RESULT. Quoting lines 26 to 32 of paragraph 3:

"The array section is equivalent to the Fortran array section 
SOURCE(sectsub_1,sectsub__2, ...sectsub_n), where SOURCE is the array 
described by source, n is the rank of that array, and sectsub_i is the 
subscript lower_i if stride_i is zero, and the section subscript 
lower_i:upper_i:stride_i otherwise. The value of lower_i is the lower 
bound of dimension i of SOURCE if lower_bounds is a null pointer and 
lower_bounds[i] otherwise. The value of upper_i is the upper bound of 
dimension i of SOURCE if upper_bounds is a null pointer and 
upper_bounds[i] otherwise. The value of stride_i is 1 if strides is a 
null pointer and strides[i] otherwise. If stride_i has the value zero, 
lower_i shall have the same value as upper_i."
