You are right, this is different, it just appeared on the same day with
almost exactly the same symptom as the other one, so I mistakenly
assumed it was the same root cause.
Reverting your patches doesn't fix it, and I only see it with the
latest gcc-7.0.1 snapshot, not with one from a few weeks ago.
I'll open a gcc bug for it.
