Also some additional background why I am even looking into this. One of our platforms (AM335x) has a regression building on Travis CI with some of our pending patches applied. Interestingly, this only happens on Travis, which still uses GCC 7.3.0 for arm (why?). With newer, more efficient compilers there is no such issue.
On this last point, gcc 7.3 is the current GCC release that doesn't have regressions elsewhere until we reach gcc-9, for which I cannot find good pre-built toolchains. We can get gcc-8.3 (or 8.2? I forget) from Arm Ltd now, but that has problems on x86.
Thanks for the background Tom, I wondered about the reasons behind.
Regards, Andreas
