Really? My gcc is smart enough to replace the `strlen("fake=")' by 5, even
without -O.

Thanks for pointing that out, but I am surprised that a compiler would
interpret library routines like strlen.

I just tested it and it turns out that you are right. I'll go hunt to
see where gcc gets its magic powers from.
