In this optimization level and with a too old gcc, one sub-program that is
computing basic data for the cohomology computations simply won't run.
So, it does not give wrong results, it gives no result whatsoever.

That's the plan. The question is: Can this wait a few months (of course
being documented on the project web page), or is it required for an
optional pack that this issue is addressed immediately?

Best regards,
Simon
