I don't have access to those compiler either, so there is some
uncertainty in the patch, even if not w.r.t to regressions.
So given that I can't test if it really works (in terms of making PCHs
happy), I rather just revert.

But of course I will apply it, along with the test case, in HEAD, for 1.35.
