Some UML person should really take a look. It might be a compiler bug that
is triggered by -fno-unit-at-a-time, but considering that x86 is the most
tested architecture by far and apparently does *not* hit that problem, it
sounds more likely that it's UML-related and the compiler just triggers a
bug in UML.

Anybody?

Yes, I'll revert that commit, but just reverting it without somebody
trying to figure out what is wrong with UML isn't good.
