The plugin version is from today's next-20170201 version, and that is the
only version I've seen so far. Unfortunately I could not reproduce on
plain linux-next but only on my working tree, which contains countless
other patches.

I took some snapshots during the creduce run, the attached file is not fully
reduced but for me this version crashes on gcc-4.9.3, 5.3.1, 6.1.1, and 7.0.1.

I think the 4.9.3 build still had checks enabled, this is the output I get there:

arm-linux-gnueabi-gcc-4.9.3: internal compiler error: Segmentation fault (program cc1)

Please submit a full bug report,
with preprocessed source if appropriate.
Please include the complete backtrace with any bug report.
See <http://gcc.gnu.org/bugs.html> for instructions.

If you can't reproduce with the version below, I'll dig in further.
