Description:
Pass the function return value argument(s) to
a FORTRAN CHARACTER FUNCTION. There is no corresponding dummy argument
in the FORTRAN FUNCTION, but the compiler generates an extra argument specifying
the address and possibly another one, specifying the length of the value to be returned.
The argument should be the address of a FORTRAN CHARACTER variable.

The hidden dummy argument to be declared.
