Note the code we're carrying around has its origins prior to the
introduction of volatile into the C standard.  It may be the case that
we can and should rethink all this behavior in a modern world where
setjmp/longjmp semantics are better refined and programmers are expected
to use volatile to indicate the behavior they want.

I'm not sure I'd want to do that during stage4 though.  Seems like a
gcc-9 kind of thing.
