--- Comment #5 from Marek Polacek <mpolacek at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
We call c_fully_fold on strcpy (s, s);, and because this CALL_EXPR is
tcc_vl_exp, we call fold () on it. fold () then via fold_call_expr -> ...
calls fold_builtin_strcpy and that hits
/* If SRC and DEST are the same (and not volatile), return DEST. */
if (operand_equal_p (src, dest, 0))
return fold_convert_loc (loc, TREE_TYPE (TREE_TYPE (fndecl)), dest);
But on second thought, delayed folding won't help, as uninit passes are run
quite late and at that point strcpy(s, s); will be already gone.
