I just tried debian-sid's 4.9.  That does show the bug.  As does their
gcc-snapshot version (a 4.10 pre).

Perhaps the distro(s) which have the bug with 4.8.2 backported the commit
where the bug first occurs?

I use the graphite optimizer on my Gentoo box (which generated the
assembly I quoted).  The graphite code is only used when one or more
of -floop-interchange -floop-strip-mine -floop-block are specified.

Testing with those options doesn't change the results.
