I think it does not mask it. The problem is that a[0]=x is converted
into load+logicals+store of the whole "a" that fits in DImode that
doesn't hurt as long as we don't decide to spit "a" into constant memory
area. Avoid purge_addressof from doing the (pessimizing) transfromation
and later changing the mind is the right way to go IMO.
