            Bug ID: 81023
           Summary: False positiv stack-use-after-scope (worked with GCC
                    6, fails with GCC 7)
           Product: gcc
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal

Minimal program to reproduce the problem

I got a report from address sanitizer about a stack-use-after-scope, which I
believe is a false positive. I managed to shrink the code down to 99 lines, but
no further (that already took 2.5 days).

Code properties:

- No includes
- No templates
- No loops
- No recursion
- No heap allocations
- Compiles cleanly with -pedantic -Wall -Wextra -Werror

Problem properties:

- Using GCC 6 (and its address sanitizer) solves the problem, only GCC 7
reports it.
- Some flags like -O0 or -O3 solve the problem, -O1 still produces it.
- Using -fno-inline solves the problem.
- Almost every change to the code in order to simplify it will solve the
problem.

I'm at a total loss as to what is wrong and I am pretty sure the code itself it
not accessing the stack after the scope is gone.

The area I am suspicious about is: I'm throwing an exception and the destructor
of the class "marker" is writing some bytes (assignment of "iterator"). Is this
confusing the address sanitizer?

My system (g++ --version):

g++-7 (Ubuntu 7.1.0-5ubuntu2~14.04) 7.1.0

Output:
