I know how to file gcc bugs.  I've just filed one.  I didn't
have time to try and reduce the testcase, and I can't try
different versions of g++ yet.  I've asked to have different
versions installed on paer.

The bug report is at:
http://gcc.gnu.org/PR40505

I've never been able to file any (non-automated) bug report in
5 minutes.  And if you don't even have direct access to the
hardware it takes longer.
