Hello Jiewen,

I get the error only for GCC49 and not for GCC5 toolchain.  CI uses GCC5.

So I compared build commands and this seems to depend on LTO.  Adding `-flto`
impedes compiler's ability to detect such simple issues.

I've found relevant bug report, there is even fix suggestion from last month:

    https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=90844

Regards,
Sergei
