As seen in https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=54136#c5 this
is hiding something important:

> double cam_xyz[4][3];

The code tries to access it like this:

> cam_xyz[0][j] = table[i].trans[j] / 10000.0;


And this is the problem with your code. It just does something
undefined and happens to get some defined behavior. This is why
GCC developers marked this problem as invalid and told that the
code is broken [1].
