Sorry for our late reply. We rechecked this case and found that this can
only be reproduced by a specific version of gcc. gcc-12.2.0 can
reproduce it while gcc-11.3.0 and gcc-13.2.0 cannot. This may indeed be
a flaw in gcc-12. Attached part of the disassembly of the object file
built by gcc-12. We will configure the bot to ignore this warning to
avoid false positives.
