i tried to reproduce it with 5.4 and 6.3 to no avail (arm64->arm cross compiler)
so some more information will be needed. first, which plugin version did you try?
second, if you build your own gcc, can you configure one with this additional
option:

  --enable-checking=assert,df,gimple,misc,rtl,rtlflag,runtime,tree,types

this will enable lots of compile time self-checking in gcc and may pinpoint the
problem sooner (it also increases compile time so you probably want to keep this
gcc as a separate build from your main one).
