.. so I ended up waiting for that fixed version due to this email, but it never came. Should I just apply the original and re-fix it myself? Or is this queued up for 3.12 as being "not likely to actually matter", which is quite possibly true (since we compile with "-fno-strict-overflow", and thus gcc should hopefully not ever do any transformations that depend on signed integer overflows being undefined)
