It seems better optimization in recent gcc versions exposes bugs
in squeak-vm.

The following workaround to use less optimization works for me:

This is a short-term workaround for stretch.

Additionally adding -Wall gives tons of warnings for non-harmless 
issues, that's a good starting point when searching for a proper fix.
