there was a 7-9% exec time slowdown of the cactusADM SPEC 2006
benchmark when compiled with -Ofast -g on an Zen4
machine. I bisected it to r17-1586-gc36539e6fd0dfa.

tree-optimization/125730 - avoid losing track of base in IVOPTs
This is a regression against GCC 16. See the comparison
here:
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=943.100.0&plot.1=1000.100.0&plot.2=985.100.0&plot.3=1013.100.0&plot.4=1162.100.0&plot.5=1580.100.0&plot.6=967.100.0&
There were also these cactusADM slowdowns in the same timeframe (so probably
caused by the same commit):
8% Zen4 -Ofast -march=x86-64-v3 -g -flto=128
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=1119.100.0
14% aarch64 (Ampere Altra Neoverse N1) -Ofast -march=native -g with PGO
