The problem is that the __def_init_... is not marked as FL_PARAMETER and hence not as TREE_READONLY. However, even if one manually sets attr.flavor == FL_PARAMETER, the call does not seem to get optimized away. I assume that's because one has: __builtin_memcpy (D.1947_18, &__def_init_m_T, D.1957_16); which makes the analysis more difficult. Nevertheless, the default initialization should be marked as TREE_READONLY.
