See: https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=59358 This problem was fixed back in December 2013 in the 4.8 branch as well as the trunk branch. However, the trusty package ended up without the fix. This is the patch that is missing: https://gcc.gnu.org/viewcvs/gcc/branches/gcc-4_8-branch/gcc/tree-vrp.c?view=patch&r1=205608&r2=205607&pathrev=205608 This has already affected a separate package, that needed to workaround the problem: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/krb5/+bug/1347147 And is now causing issues for users that run into this problem as well. Please apply the patch to the gcc-4.8 version shipped on trusty and on utopic.
