thanks for the suggestions so far (esp. V=1!).

negative persistence being what it is, i used "lxd" magic, spun up a new
Ubuntu 16.04 release, cloned the git repository, "git checkout
emacs-26.1", downloaded all the prereqs, autogen.sh'd, configured :
./configure --with-xwidgets --with-modules --without-dbus then, "make &&
make check"; same results.  (and, for my sanity self-appraisal, i'm glad
for Robert Pluim's confirmation -- thanks!)

i'll try to report it to gcc (not a community with which i have
much other-than-user experience, so, something new).

cheers, Greg
