A minimal testcase:

enum lc_reason
{
  LC_ENTER = 0,
  LC_LEAVE,
  LC_RENAME,
  LC_RENAME_VERBATIM,
  LC_ENTER_MACRO

};

const char *
foo (enum lc_reason reason)
{
  const char *lc_reasons_v[LC_ENTER_MACRO + 1]
      = { "LC_ENTER", "LC_LEAVE", "LC_RENAME", "LC_RENAME_VERBATIM",
   "LC_ENTER_MACRO" };

  return lc_reasons_v[reason];
}


Without your TREE_ASM_WRITTEN kludge, the string values of the array are not
emitted in the assembly. The array referencing the strings is emitted, but the
values themselves are not.
