Because -O3 is very aggressive and should NOT be used. Especially not
when compiling/bootstrapping a system. In most cases it makes things

How do debug printfs kill the timing but GDB doesn't?

Did your employer tell you to use -O3? If yes, quit your job and never
look back.

#ifdef DEBUGPRINTFSPLOX
printf("value: %#042d", (int)((float)9000.1 + (float)0.9));
