This is not only a Debian problem. Happens on openSUSE Factory, too - but only on x86_64 - see
https://build.opensuse.org/package/rawlog?arch=x86_64&package=erlang&project=home%3Atschuett&repository=openSUSE_Factory

This error did not occur with R14B01 - but the GCC packages might have been different back then.
Does the error still occur with the GCC patch from the bug report you mentioned?
