I reported this to the gcc people.  gcc 2.95.2 compiles it with -O0 and
-O2 but not with -O.  Since I'm using Linux/i386, it seems the bug is
rather backend-independent.

Are they just suspicions, or do you have any evidence?  Does Solaris
not have a good implementation of Unix domain sockets?  In my (rather
limited) experience, modularity nearly always makes for easier
debugging.
