A compiler bug cannot introduce UB by definition. UB is a contract between the coder and the C language standard. UB is solely determined by looking at your code, the standard, and the input data; it is independent of the compiler. If the compiler converts UB-free code into misbehavior, then that's a compiler bug / miscompilation, not an introduction of UB.
