In SERVER-77273 we added an auto retry for an ICE from GCC. This helped maintenance burden of BF's we can't do much about. However the issue was never fully understood. We should remove this auto retry and see if it comes back with newer compilers in the future.
It could be a gcc bug and maybe something we should spend some time to track down and write a bug report. Tracking it down may shed some insight on what our code is doing in the compiler, and indicate maybe there is a better way to write the code that improves compiler speed or hints at a subtle issue in the code.
