--- Comment #1 from Alan Modra <amodra at gmail dot com> ---
Technically there is a buffer overrun here, but there are no fields following
x_fname and x_file is not the largest element of union internal_auxent.  Nor is
internal_auxent allocated according to which field is in use.  So the overrun
is harmless, except of course when it triggers code to detect overruns.

2.24 has exactly the same problem, and I think, all pe targets..  I expect
you're compiling with different compilers or options in cases where you don't
trigger the error.
