Comment:
You can narrow down the problem by compiling individual modules in the RTS
with or without -optc-O2. Also try the sanity checker (+RTS -DS). It
will make things easier if you find a smaller program from the testsuite
that fails, rather than GHC itself.
I'd like to point out that it's not unknown for GCC to have bugs - we've
had to work around them in the past, e.g. look in `LdvProfile.c`.
