Probably:

  <https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=20305>
  <https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22636>

It's a nasty CPU backwards compatibility problem.  Some of the
suggestions I made to work around this are simply wrong; don't take them
too seriously.

Nowadays, the kernel has a way to disable the %zmm registers, but it
unfortunately does not reduce the save area size.

Thanks,
Florian
