Doko, you asked me to re-test if this is still a problem.  It is.  :(  I
rebuilt accountsservice with latest utopic and without the optimization
work-arounds I had put it in it before.  Still hit bug 1351308.

** Changed in: gcc-4.9 (Ubuntu)
       Status: Incomplete => New

Title:
  Compiler optimization error needs investigation

Status in “gcc-4.9” package in Ubuntu:

Bug description:
  This is a breakaway bug from bug 1351308.

  accountsservice 0.6.37-1ubuntu7 introduced a new bug where
  libaccountsservice would not report the manager object as loaded.  It
  wasn't because of the content of that upload, but rather seemingly
  because of building with a new compiler.  It got uploaded shortly
  after the gcc 4.9 transition.

  I wasn't able to determine whether this is something accountsservice
  is doing or just gcc's fault.  But even inserting some debug
  statements around the place or downgrading optimization to -O1 made
  the problem go away.  So I'm leaning towards gcc.

  For now, we just changed optimization in the package to workaround the
  problem.  But the root source should be investigated.
