Unlike normal variables in procedures, derived types can have non-saved default initializer values, and it is safest to ensure that pointers are associated, so that they can then be tested using intrinsics.
This is just the first type of variable to check in the derived types. Further checks can suggest default initializers on intrinsic typed variables.
