Note that this behaviour is only a pessimization if you've got a
target machine like an AVR.  For a hosted application on a
"mainstream" GCC target machine, this is not an optimization at all,
because setting up the data segment comes at virtually no cost there.

That might explain why an enhancement request like this one would very
likely not trigger much motivation on the average GCC developer.
