I haven't followed development much, lately ( :-( ), but I don't
think so. This looks similer to:

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25190

That particular PR is reported as being fixed for 9.1, so it's
not the same problem, or the fix was incomplete.

Have you tried master, by any chance?
