Follow up to myself, the culprit is the (lost patch to remove ?) use
of -fstrict-aliasing with -O2+ and -Os, which is definitely not supported
by some parts of our code base.

You can try to compile with -fno-strict-aliasing, but we make no guaranties
about the result.

I'm thinking about patching it out :)
