I see no problems with this in C terms. I expect some code may well do
things like
static size_t len = __builtin_strlen ("foo");
and expect the static initializer to get folded, but that's only an issue
with folding for constant arguments to pure functions - not for the
functions involved here, whose whole purpose is to modify memory.
