I don't know enough about this.  Perhaps Andrea or Paul could comment.

Throwing -fno-strict-aliasing in the mix is a bit like throwing -O1 into the mix. I'm not surprised it would cause a Heisenbug to vanish; it doesn't mean strict aliasing is the problem.

Emacs should work with strict aliasing. At least, that's true in the default build. I suppose it could be possible there's a strict aliasing bug in the native compiler - I'm not that familiar with that code.
