 > This seems to be the right solution

 I completely disagree.  Dropping the optimization is at best a workaround.
 IMHO it can ''never'' be "the right solution".  It means that either the
 compiler or the code has a bug.  Maybe dropping the optimization to `-O2`
 covers up any issues, but I think one should really investigate what the
 true problem is.

 I am ''very strongly'' against saying to never increase the optimization
 level to `-O3`.  If some later upstream version has fixed this problem, we
 ''should'' increase the optimization level back to `-O3`.
