I think some older gfortran did initialize allocated memory but that is an
unspecified behavior.  I haven't found any initialization mentioned
in Fortran 90 standard (draft) and it is also clearly stated here:
        https://software.intel.com/en-us/forums/intel-fortran-compiler-for-linux-and-mac-os-x/topic/268786
        Initialization to 0 of allocated arrays (of integers) is an
        implementation issue. i.e. do not rely on it.

I am wondering if it might be better to just relax instead the regexp to allow
any number rather than just remove the test altogether. The test allows us to
verify that, as soon as we're past the "allocate" call, we no longer say "not
allocated".
