Not only does it work, but older versions of OpenToken encouraged it!
One nice thing this allows it the ability to use subroutine accesses for
subroutines that aren't declared at the library level (eg: within the
declarations of a "main" subprogram).
The problem is that it *doesn't* work if said generic contains a
controlled type declaration (or any other extension of a library-level
declared tagged type). Personally I think this is a major problem with
controlled types.
