I tried a lot of things, including rebuilding gcc while running it,
but can't cause it to fail on x86. On the alpha I can make it fail
pretty easily, as it turns out, by using different parameters. `50
50' makes it fail there.
BTW I submitted a high-priority PR for this so we can track it.
I found I was losing track of everything going on, so I've started
entering PRs for anything I think we need to fix for 3.1.
