It is possible that it is a compiler bug. It wouldn't be the first. But it's more likely that it's a bug in your code somehow. Everybody who ever has a mysterious bug that they can't find will almost always point a finger at the compiler. And they are right about 1% of the time.

DH_BUGFILES(1)							     Debhelper							    DH_BUGFILES(1)

NAME

       dh_bugfiles - install bug reporting customization files into package build directories

SYNOPSIS

       dh_bugfiles [-A] [debhelperoptions]

DESCRIPTION

       dh_bugfiles is a debhelper program that is responsible for installing bug reporting customization files (bug scripts and/or bug control
       files and/or presubj files) into package build directories.

FILES

       debian/package.bug-script
	   This is the script to be run by the bug reporting program for generating a bug report template. This file is installed as
	   usr/share/bug/package in the package build directory if no other types of bug reporting customization files are going to be installed
	   for the package in question. Otherwise, this file is installed as usr/share/bug/package/script. Finally, the installed script is given
	   execute permissions.

       debian/package.bug-control
	   It is the bug control file containing some directions for the bug reporting tool. This file is installed as
	   usr/share/bug/package/control in the package build directory.

       debian/package.bug-presubj
	   The contents of this file are displayed to the user by the bug reporting tool before allowing the user to write a bug report on the
	   package to the Debian Bug Tracking System. This file is installed as usr/share/bug/package/presubj in the package build directory.

OPTIONS

       -A, --all
	   Install debian/bug-* files to ALL packages acted on when respective debian/package.bug-* files do not exist. Normally, debian/bug-*
	   will be installed to the first package only.
