 did you compile without optimisation?]

Gcc 2.96 does remove the unreached code in your example,
but it still emits string constants.

int func()
{
  if (1)
    a = "foo";
  else
    a = "bar";
}

.LC0:
        .string "foo"
.LC1:
        .string "bar"
.text
        .align 4
.globl func
        .type    func,@function
func:
        pushl   %ebp
        movl    %esp, %ebp
        movl    $.LC0, a
        popl    %ebp
        ret
