I'm not saying that this is a GCC bug. But maybe you are right, and
the changes in d7038020 exposed this problem. I would have thought it
was the other way around: the mis-alignment should have been fixed by
those changes, but the fact that the pretest doesn't have this problem
tells otherwise.

It is a member of struct thread_state, and the struct itself should be
correctly aligned on the emacs-26 branch, AFAIU.
