--- Comment #1 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Confirmed on x86_64 with

const short __attribute__((vector_size(16))) y = { 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 };

int
main (int argc, short *argv[])
{
  int i = argc;
  y[i] = 7 - i;
  return 0;
}

Here the FE already folds the constant initializer with optimization:

  VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR<short int[8]>({ 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 })[i] = (short int)
(7 - (unsigned short) i);

but not so without:

  VIEW_CONVERT_EXPR<short int[8]>(y)[i] = (short int) (7 - (unsigned short) i);

Either the program should be rejected or the FE should avoid folding an
lvalue to an rvalue.
