PCShellSetContext fortran interface

Hi,
I don't know if this is the expected behaviour but calling PCShellSetContext
from fortran, the thing that is stored is not the integer value of context,
but the pointer to this integer. Thus problems arise when supplying an
integer variable that goes out of scope (e.g. on the stack) inbetween
PCShellSetContext and the call to the 'apply shell preconditioner' routine. I
know this makes sense from the C point of view, where you are merely
supplying a void pointer, but this is not what you expect in Fortran were the
only use of context could be as a reference/index itself to another object,
and you thus expect the value of context to be stored.
Cheers
