r256683 committed to GCC 8 to avoiding duplicate instances of
-Wstringop-overflow warnings on some targets has the unintended
side-effect of suppressing even singleton instances of the warning
in cases such as 'strcat (strcpy (buf, "hello "), "world!")' when
_FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined.

The attached patch restores the warning for the trunk.

Since this is a regression in a security feature and the warning
isn't prone to false positives (I don't think I've seen any when
_FORTIFY_SOURCE is defined), I'd also like the fix considered for
the 8 branch.

Thanks
Martin
