     FORTRAN compilation error F2623
 
     <name> : nonconstant CHARACTER length : cannot pass by value
 
     If a substring is used when passing a CHARACTER*(n) or
     CHARACTER*(*) argument to a formal argument declared with the
     VALUE attribute, then the lower and upper substring values must be
     constant. Otherwise, the length cannot be determined.
