No particular reason.

Since the problem disappears under GDB, it is probably memory-related.
So it figures that it behaves like a classic heisenbug.
Unfortunately, it means more combinations to try and more time to
waste...

See above: I'm not surprised.  Especially since MinGW64 uses ASLR.
However, using sequential builds, as suggested by Andrea, could
perhaps help.  I'd also consider building with -Wl,--disable-dynamicbase
for example like this (when you run Make in the src directory):

  make LD_SWITCH_SYSTEM='-Wl,--disable-dynamicbase'

Maybe this will make the bug less unpredictable, who knows?
