I was trying to figure out why the problem is reproducible for me and not for
you. I understand --enable-targets=all does not affect it but as the patch
already makes development vs. user build difference we could add even more
tweaks like special CFLAGS into the development build. (Assuming special
CFLAGS can reproduce the bug.)

The key is to never use any SIZE because then after you modify START
everything breaks down.
