Note I thought I saw this one before.  But I can't seen to find it.
But the gimplifier should do better at deciding to do a copy or initializing
manually.  The front-end could help via using RANGE_EXPR for the manual
initialization though.  Which the gimplifier should done as loop.

So for a loop based initialization, this needs help from the front-end. 
Because a CONSTRUCTOR with over 5000 elements is not a good thing anyways.
