Hi, when I am running the gcc testsuite in $builddir/gcc then
$ make check-gcc RUNTESTFLAGS='ubsan.exp'

This was discussed before, and the suspicion was that it was a linux
kernel bug. There were multiple kernel fixes pointed at, it wasn't
clear which one was required to fix it.
I have Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on my laptop, and I see the problem. I can't
run the ubsan testsuites with -j factor greater than one and get
reproducible results. There may also be other ways to trigger the problem.
See for instance the thread
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2016-07/msg00117.html
The first message in the thread from Andrew Pinski mentions that the log
output is corrupted from apparent buffer overflow.
