They also want us to try:

(10:44:14 AM) jakub_: sgallagh: that said, as usually I'd suggest them to try
- -fsanitize=undefined, various packages e.g. call methods on NULL pointers
which is invalid C++
(10:45:07 AM) jakub_: sgallagh: and/or try -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks ,
- -fno-strict-aliasing, -fno-aggressive-loop-optimizations , -fwrapv etc. if it
makes a difference


Once I have a reproducer, I can try doing some builds with those flags and see
what happens.

Please file a BZ to track this and add the information there.
