gcc dying with ICE or SIGSEGV? Or what? Seriously lacking information here.

Are you using btrfs or cifs (the two filesystems that had
bigger-than-average changes)?

Any chance to bisect it (even if just partially - a couple of
bisection runs would already narrow it down quite a bit)?

Hmm. Adding Davem for that one, although I'd expect you to be able to
figure out some networking problem on your own and perhaps give a
better report?
