Yes, upgrading GCC fixes this (see https://travis-ci.org/OpenSmalltalk/opensmalltalk-vm/builds/355826629 )

But the newspeak-bootstrap now fails.

@Eliot, can you have a look at this?

I actually cannot fathom how a gcc upgrade should influence this, but I'll hold whit the Pull Request until you say that its either my fault or nothing to be afraid of.

Best regards
