New submission from Dirkjan Ochtman:

I recently filed http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=15153, prompted by https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427338 (for 2.7, and https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=427330 for 3.2), for which I found http://bugs.python.org/issue9852. Similar issues have subsequently been found in http://bugs.python.org/issue13370. The latter has been fixed in http://hg.python.org/cpython/rev/a425f2697273 (for 2.7 -- other branches were affected as well), but that fix is incorrectly scoped to just OS X.

It looks like clang is actually right here, and gcc is wrong; see their bug at http://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=46942 (clang has a bug for this at http://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=15153).
