--- Comment #1 from Richard Biener <rguenth at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
But then the strlen pass should see the zeroing and then notice the memcpy will
produce a 0-terminated string. The user might have written this w/o the
a[3] = 0 in place after all.
So IMHO not a DSE fault but possibly a dup of another strlen missed
optimization.
