Don't populate arrays on the stack, instead make them static .
Makes the object code smaller by 76 bytes:

That's a known gcc bug:
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?idh725
There are hundreds of constant compound literals that are generated
on the stack rather than stored in rodata, do you intend to file
patches for all of them? Adding static everywhere is just a
workaround that bloats the code. Fixing the root cause in gcc would
make more sense.
Just my 2 cents worth of course.
Thanks,
Lukas

Hrm. constifying will specify it won't be changed; section A8.2 of "The
C programming language" 2nd edition states that this specifier "is to
announce that objects may be placed in read-only memory, and perhaps
increase opportunities for optimization". Emphasis on "may", it can do,
but it does not necessarily have to. The static storage class specifier
will ensure the object is not on the stack for sure. So I think from my
understanding of the semantics described in K&R 2nd edition:
const - data is read only, and can be put into read-only location if
compiler can (or wants) to do so
static - data will be not stashed on the stack.
So my change is to be totally clear on the intent - make it read only
and ensure it is not populated at run time on the stack.

Don't populate arrays on the stack, instead make them static.
Makes the object code smaller by 76 bytes:
