In my +- 25 years of experience, I've encountered exactly 1 compiler bug. That cost me a full week of debug. Unfortunately, it happened during my very first year as a developer, and that triggered sub-optimal debugging practices (ie: is that the compiler fault again?)
At the end of the day, you want to optimise for debug time. There's the probability that it's a compiler/developer bug (respectively very low/very high) and the time it takes to rule it out. It's of course best NOT to start by investigating the compiler bug.
