The above seems to indicate the problems are somehow related to native
compilation.  Can you build Emacs without native-compilation, and try
reproducing this in such an Emacs?  If the problem doesn't happen in
Emacs without native-compilation, I suspect this is a MinGW GCC bug,
not an Emacs bug: the native code in *.eln files is somehow invalid.

Which version of GCC do you have installed, and is libgccjit you have
is from the same GCC version?

Or maybe we have a bug in native compilation.  Andrea, can you try
reproducing this on GNU/Linux?

Another idea is to modify comp.el to have native-comp-speed default to
1 instead of 2, then rebuild Emacs ("make bootstrap") with CFLAGS='-O1',
and see if the problem goes away.  If it does, that again points
toward GCC/libgccjit and the compiler optimizations.
