Comment (by k-bx):

 Hi. Is there a chance this patch could be included in the 8.2.3 release?
 We think that our codebase was affected by the bug, we've resolved the
 issue by applying `-O0` in one of the modules, but it sounds like a rather
 risky hack to have, and also some other modules from our codebase still go
 considerably higher in RAM consumption upon compilation. Waiting for 8.4
 would be rather unfortunate.

 Thank you!
