As you cannot reduce I suggest to try with every .0 DMD version,
degressively, to see if it's a regression.
Is it only with -O and are the structure very small? that could
be a SROA problem then.
Otherwise I have a specific PR in mind, that is [the big
backend](https://github.com/dlang/dmd/pull/10200) one that fixed
system V ABI. If it's the culprit, manually checking with
different DMD version will be useful (unless it did work
previously either)
