Strange.
You file an issue in the Ägypten tracker for this, attacheing the log.

I guess that we need to add debugging code to GPA to find out what
is going on.
It could also be related to threading code or something else.
Did you compile anything with optimisation?
You could try without, in rare cases this might help
to find problems with compiler optimisation.
As you have switched the compiler, 
it might be more in the libraries I guess.
