> So, just to add some points: apparently it isn't so easy to reproduce. I built Emacs with unexec without first looking at the `./configure` line in the report (looking at the report I apparently lack the `with-dumping=unexec`), and removed the workaround to not have BLOCK_SIZE=2¹⁵ if HAVE_UNEXEC. (worth noting probably that I first did the build, then remembered I had to remove the work around installed on master branch, then re-built emacs without the workaround).

My reproduction is with all the *.elc files removed:

  $ find ./lisp -name '*.elc' -delete
  $ make -j4

The specific versions of the compiler, glibc, and the Linux kernel I
have there could also be relevant, although I'm not sure.
