There's a new jump threader in GCC which is much more aggressive, and
may trigger latent problems with other warning passes, especially
-Warray-bounds, -Woverflow, and -Wuninitialized.

Do your problems go away if you take out commit 2e96b5f14e?

I have notes throughout the commit analyzing variants of the above
warnings (for example my addendum to gcc.c-torture/compile/pr83510.c).
So far, all the warnings I've seen are legitimate jump threading
opportunities that we are now doing, but which throw off the warning
passes.

Before the inclusion of the new threader, I had warned that this could
happen.  Perhaps we'll have to come up a way to reduce the false
positives.
