I've been playing around with compiler options. From my findings, the -foptimize-sibling-calls flag breaks the build: ./autogen.sh CFLAGS='-g3 -O1 -gdwarf-2 -foptimize-sibling-calls' \ ./configure --with-native-compilation make OTOH, using -O1 with every flag listed under -O2 *but* -foptimize-sibling-calls results in the build succeeding. The following works as well for me: ./autogen.sh CFLAGS='-g3 -O2 -gdwarf-2 -fno-optimize-sibling-calls' \ ./configure --with-native-compilation make
