It's an on-disk structure and relying on the gcc optimiser to do the same thing from release to release has become such a crap-shoot these days. Hence as a stop-gap measure we added build time checking of what they compiler is doing with those structures, and to refuse to build XFS if the compiler/platform is doing something obviously different. Modernising the on-disk structure definitions is on the list of things to do, but it's nowhere near the top of my list at the moment...
