Michael, did you ever get a chance trying the -fno-strict-aliasing flag rather than removing all optimizations?

I wonder if it is connected to this APR bug:

https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=50731

In subversion/libsvn_subr/utf.c we declare

static volatile void *xlat_ntou_static_handle = NULL; static volatile void *xlat_uton_static_handle = NULL;

that is "pointers to volatile data", as required by APR, but we really want "volatile pointers to data". Perhaps we should do something similar to svn_cache_config.c. Would you try this patch built with optimisations enabled:
