Please take a look at other messages in this thread, like some of the
ones I have posted.  They clearly show your problem in a small example
and how it is happening in the -O2 case as memset is being optimized
away.  -O would appear to do the right thing and adding
-minline-all-stringops (at either optimization level) would produce even
better code.
