[Bug tree-optimization/36602] New: memset should be optimized into an empty CONSTRUCTOR

["pinskia at gcc dot gnu dot org" <gcc-bugzilla at gcc dot gnu dot org>]

I noticed this while looking into tree-ssa-sccvn.c sources (though I doubt it
helps in general really).  But anyways we should optimize the following code
into just a "return 0;":
struct f
{
  int t, k;
  int g[1024];
};


int g(void)
{
  struct f a;
  __builtin_memset(&a, 0, sizeof(a));
  return a.t;
}

-- CUT ---
You can see that with the above code we get a zeroing for the struct still.
