Ticket #27 (defect)

The recently released verions of the array_declators test fails as follows:

UPC error: Invalid conversion of shared address to local pointer.
Thread does not have affinity to shared address.

It fails at line 88:

88              pp = (int *) &A[BLOCKS * MYTHREAD];

The relevant declarations are:

#define  N      5
#define  BLOCKS 3

shared  int     A[N*THREADS];
shared[N] int   B[N*THREADS];

The test fails for THREADS > 2. We routinely run with THREADS=4.

Given the declarations above, there is no guarantee that that &A[BLOCKS * MYTHREAD] has affinity to MYTHREAD.
