I've now looked closer at the errors reported by Sash0k.

In the first case a compiler dev would try to fix the compiler, because 
the error happens in the newly compiled compiler.

The second case is interesting indeed. It's a pity that we don't know 
what failed exactly in the compile... one would need a 2.4.4 with 
included debug information for that.
