You need to add --disable-checking to your configure flags in order to compare against a development branch. When release branches are made, checking gets turned off by default by configure, but it's on in non-release branches. The compiler is a *lot* slower with checking -- http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=16613
