--- Comment #1 from David Majnemer <david.majnemer at gmail.com> ---
It is not correct to transform ((unsigned)__builtin_strlen(s)) == 0 into *s ==
0.

The unsigned cast is masking out the high half of the strlen result.

For example, if __builtin_strlen comes out to 1ULL << 32 then
(unsigned)__builtin_strlen is zero but *s isn't 0.
