Ok, will do (I still think I'd better hide it behind a macro so that
we can change the implementation of DO_NOT_OPTIMIZE in the future if
the compiler starts outsmarting us again.

Moved it to the test description:

/*
 * Test case: ensure that memcpy() correctly copies initialized values.
 * Also serves as a regression test to ensure DO_NOT_OPTIMIZE() does not cause
 * extra checks.
 */

I think it's still relevant here.
