I would have thought that a compiler that miscompiles trivial for loops and
thus inserts bugs in lots of programs compiled with it is unsuitable for
release, i.e. severity serious.

Unfortunately, no. On arm, the apcalc testsuite simply segfaulted just as
with the new gcc 4.1 bug. But since the 4.1 bug causes a segfault very
early in the testsuite, it will probably hide the gcc 4.0 one.
