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.
