The compiler is rarely wrong in these cases
But it does appear to be wrong in this case. That's why I filed a compiler bug, and the GCC maintainers seem to agree that it's a bug.
Long ago when I ran into this set of GCC bugs, I shrugged and added 'volatile's to pacify the buggy GCCs. Stefan removed some of them as part of some of his other fixes, but I suspect that a few 'volatile's are not necessary even today (except perhaps to pacify the GCC bug).
I say "set of GCC bugs" because I suspect there are more than one, some of which have been fixed, and some of which remain.
