I doubt it as if I read the asm differences correctly, GCC 6 just no longer
does store with post increment and that causes register allocation differences.
 AKA there is no extra jump threading; just extra moves.  Like:

  68:   e1a05004        mov     r5, r4
  6c:   eaffffec        b       24 <inttostr+0x24>

so it might be caused by out of SSA differences too :)
