Did you ever find a workaround for such an issue? Perhaps by refactoring 
the code within lttng_kconsumer_snapshot_channel()?

Thank you!

A similar issue was experienced due to a gcc ARM bug. It only triggered
in O2 on specific gcc versions. I updated http://bugs.lttng.org/issues/640
with a suggested work around: compile lttng-tools in O1 if you cannot get
a fixed compiler.

Thanks,

Mathieu
