Just because the compiler changed behaviour doesn't necessarily make it a
regression.  Perhaps the change was intentional.

It could be equally argued that failing to put uninitialized data in separate
sections was the bug that was being fixed when the change was introduced.  It
would be necessary to do some archeology to find out which patch caused the
change, and why it was proposed in the first place.
