Again this is just Kenner's big patch coming into play. See PR 16237.
The problem is that memory layout causes slight differences to make
his patch fo something slightly differently.
I have a fold-const.c patch that tightens the comparison and eliminates
this problem. I've been holding it because I was hoping for something
better, but it did pass testing a while ago, so maybe I'll commit it soon
and then figure out a little bit down the road (once I've got everything
working) what the actual best approach is.
