Thank Christophe for the fix. I am very glad to be of benefit to the
community ;-)
Also thank Michael and Paul for your constant encouragement and
guidance, I learned to use objdump to count the number of failed

By the way, from my experiments, both gcc-11 and clang-14 behave the
same as Michael has described.
