I tried various sprinkling of "const" around the declarations to make it
clear that the values wouldn't change once we saw them. But I couldn't
detect any difference. At most I think that would let us hoist the "if"
out of the loop, but gcc still seems unwilling to expand the memcmp when
there are other branches.

I think if that's the thing we want to have happen, we really do need to
just write it out on that branch rather than saying "memcmp".
