 Yes.  The reason I think it's a gcc problem is that start1 is set
to
 BUF_BEGV(curent_buffer) = 1 in Fwrite_region_internal.  However, at
 some later point it magically gets changed to 8388xxxx in the call to
 make_lisp_buffer_stream.  A peek at the code shows that start1 is only
 set in a few places and none of them can do this. 
In my experience you can't trust the values of variables reported by
gdb (incl. backtraces) unless you compiled with -g and without
optimisation.
