As every new technology, it needs some time to evolve.  Nevertheless, it is an important tool to mitigate the effects stack overflow attacks can produce.  Besides, this was no code generation error, but a simple abort() in the compiler sources to handle unforseen circumstances.  Gcc is full of those, as is our kernel.  It is just not easy to make such a big project completely bug-free.
