What I tend to do in these situations is roll back to the version prior 
to the "fix" and try the testcase with that compiler.  Then I can walk 
through under GDB control to find out whatever I need.

Clearly something needs to change here, but the question is what :-) 
And I think rolling back and debugging that compiler is the best way to 
know get more information to allow this to move forward.
