there was a 7% exec time slowdown of the fotonik3d_r SPEC 2017
benchmark when compiled with -O2 -march=native -g on an Zen5
machine. I bisected it to r17-2876-gf0bd50e8317926.

x86 SSE: Improved vector initialization/construction.
This is a regression against GCC 16. See the comparison
here:
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=1279.527.0&plot.1=1340.527.0&plot.2=1307.527.0&plot.3=1362.527.0&plot.4=1563.527.0&plot.5=1254.527.0&
I tested the patch linked in pr126619, sadly it doesn't fix the issue.
