'MEM[(struct m *)&s + 56B]' may be used uninitialized in this function

With gfortran 8.0.1 the following code (reduced from a much larger code, so
there are obvious things wrong with it):
module mtc
type :: t
integer, allocatable, dimension(:) :: a
end type t
type :: m
type(t), allocatable, dimension(:) :: fs
end type m
contains
subroutine ap(s,ps)
class(m), intent(inout) :: s
type(t), dimension(:), allocatable, intent(inout) :: ps
ps(:)=[t([0]),t([0])]
end subroutine ap
function rcp() result(s)
type(m) :: s
type(t), allocatable, dimension(:) :: fs
type(t), dimension(:), allocatable :: aps
allocate(fs(2))
s=m(fs)
call ap(s,aps)
end function rcp
end module mtc
gives the following when compiled:
$ gfortran -c 059.F90 -O1 -Wall
059.F90:9:17:
subroutine ap(s,ps)
1
Warning: Unused dummy argument 's' at (1) [-Wunused-dummy-argument]
059.F90:19:0:
s=m(fs)
Warning: 'MEM[(struct m *)&s + 48B]' may be used uninitialized in this
function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
059.F90:19:0: Warning: 'MEM[(struct m *)&s + 56B]' may be used uninitialized
in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
059.F90:19:0: Warning: 'fs.span' may be used uninitialized in this function [-
Wmaybe-uninitialized]
I can probably figure out what's causing the "may be used uninitialized" in
this reduced case, but I wondered if the:
'MEM[(struct m *)&s + 48B]'
is as intended, or if this should be the name of some member variable in type
"m" instead?
(The first warning, about the unused dummy argument, is easily fixed of course,
but if I remove the dummy argument the maybe-uninitialized warning goes away.)
