This is a gcc bug. They better fix it and backport it to stable. We do
not work around bugs in other software, unless they explicitly state
why it is not fixed in stable releases. I cannot see a statement why
this bug is unhandled since _2011_.
If gcc developers reject to respond to bug-reports, why do
distributions compile gcc with LTO enabled?
Anyway, why don't you use this workaround instead:
./configure CFLAGS="$CFLAGS -flto=n"
*confused*
