Yes.  Why do you ask?

Nope.  All those bugs are trivial to track down, as once you find the 
translation unit that contained the compiled code with something called 
a debugger, you submit the -E for it and that flags used to compile it, 
and because the compiler is deterministic, all such bugs are trivial to 
track down.
