Sure. IIRC, without it, we'd initialize scalarized fields, fail to
copy them into the unscalarized variable, then block-copy the entire
variable with outdated contents. I remember this was one of the last
fixes I added to the patch, so taking it out you're certainly going to
observe regressions on x86_64-linux-gnu and/or i686-linux-gnu.
