These do look very similar to what I was hitting; all appear to be
misaligned atomics in the same path.

I see that you have some empty repro files in [2]. If you have any
reproducers, would you mind sharing them?

If any of those are smaller or more reliable than the one I was able to
generate [3], it might make it more obvious what's going on, and/or make
it simpler to come up with a plain C reproducer.

Thanks,
Mark.
