No. Literally the same exact version. All of them are

gcc version 11.2.1 20210728

from F34.

I suspect it's something about the config - a sparc64 allmodconfig
presumably doesn't end up having some of the things x86-64 has enabled
(because of different core config parameters), and then optimizes
differently as a result and shows the issue that way.

Or something. <wild handwaving>
