Hello Alex,

Thanks for the hint. It was actually not the -O flag that created the
problem. But it pointed me in the right direction, when I passed
-fno-experimental-new-pass-manager it started to show the error. My
guess is that the new pass manager is more aggressive in removing UB?

Thanks,
Tobias
