Occasionally I use appveyor/GitHub Actions to build Emacs for Windows
using MSYS environment. At some point the build started to fail when
making .elc files.

I suspect that newer version of dependencies (libgccjit?) caused the
crash because a previous passing commit now also failed.

I don't have a local environment to investigate further. I don't know
whether the following information is actionable but here they are

- The appveyor build history:
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/voidfoo/emacs-w64/history

- A previous passing AppVeyor build on top of commit 4b3de74:
  https://ci.appveyor.com/project/voidfoo/emacs-w64/builds/47147210

- GitHub action build on top of 4b3de74 that now is failing:
  https://github.com/voidfoo/emacs/actions/runs/6068869155/job/16462420999

- I tried to do a debug build and that is passing

https://github.com/voidfoo/emacs/actions/runs/6063066665/job/16449969955#step:6:3

In failing builds, it seems that Emacs crashed

Did you per chance upgrade GCC and/or libgccjit and/or Binutils
between the last successful build and the first failed one?

There is a update of the package to gcc 13.2.0 that may be related:

I found out that it is a dupe of
https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=63365

Not sure why I didn't find it when searching the bug database before
reporting. This issue can be closed now.
