report will be hard or impossible to reproduce if you don't attach the input
file(s).

Hi, the input files can be found in my "autotools-tinkering" branch of gcc:
https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/compare/master...cooljeanius:me/autotools-tinkering
In particular commit 6b44b2c contains a lot of the screw-ups:
https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/commit/6b44b2c391c1132acc8cfdefe83e2e614b8e590d
I can try reducing some reproducers from it if you'd like; should I?
