Bug ID: 113341
Summary: Using GCC as the bootstrap compiler breaks LLVM on
32-bit PowerPC
Product: gcc
Version: 13.2.1
URL: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/72279
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: P3
Component: target
Assignee: unassigned at gcc dot gnu.org
Reporter: glaubitz at physik dot fu-berlin.de
CC: jrtc27 at jrtc27 dot com, segher at gcc dot gnu.org,

Target Milestone: ---
Using GCC on 32-bit PowerPC as the bootstrap compiler to build LLVM leads to
clang crashing during stage 2 with a backtrace. This does not happen when LLVM
is used as the bootstrap compiler.
The backtrace that clang generates can be found in the LLVM bug report [1].
The problem was observed with LLVM 17, so I initially suspected a regression in
LLVM. I was able to bisect issue which lead to the following commit in LLVM:
bc73ef0031b50f7443615fef614fb4ecaaa4bd11 is the first bad commit
commit bc73ef0031b50f7443615fef614fb4ecaaa4bd11

PR60985: Fix merging of lambda closure types across modules.
However, since the problem does not show when using LLVM as the bootstrap
compiler instead of GCC, I'm suspecting that GCC is miscompiling the code.
