Ok. Here are the new numbers from current trunk built with
--enable-checking=release
(nothing's changed that I can see; still very slow):

for j in 500 1000 2000 3000; do perl ./gen_bz18872.pl $j > t.c ; (time
gcc-svn-r227326-rel/bin/gcc -c -O2 t.c) |& grep user; done

user    0m1.488s
user    0m12.010s
user    1m40.353s
user    5m47.668s

Here is the -ftime-report:

perl ./gen_bz18872.pl 2000 > t.c && gcc-svn-r227326-rel/bin/gcc -c -O2 t.c
