Created attachment 144532 [details] [review] should not affect anything patch Interestingly now I am running with this patch, but I never saw this code path taken ever so it should not count. Also I have compiled with this setup and it works still: meson configure build/ -Dc_args="-O2 -Ofast" -Dcpp_args="-O2 -Ofast" -Dc_link_args="-O2 -Ofast" -Dcpp_link_args="-O2 -Ofast" I have yet to try with -O3 so far now, but it more and more looks this is just some kind of rare heisenbug. When it is not happening I cannot even make it work.. Also now that the bug only seem to appear very rarely it is much harder to debug and I think its impact is much smaller too...
