GHC panics when Cmm-compiling `STK_CHK_GEN_N (8);`

The following Cmm code snippet compiles fine

foo ()
{
  STK_CHK_GEN_N (((1)*8)); /* works */
  return (0);
}

The following one, however, only compiles with -O0, but panics with -O1 or more:

foo ()
{
  STK_CHK_GEN_N (8); /* panics */
  return (0);
}

ghc: panic! (the 'impossible' happened)
  (GHC version 7.8.3 for x86_64-unknown-linux):

                          label: block{v c1}_info

              call (P64[Sp])(R1) args: 8, res: 0, upd: 8;
        }
    }
