It was caught by suse's build bot while merging the stable branch. But 
it can be also seen in OBS in Kernel:stable:

https://build.opensuse.org/public/build/Kernel:stable/standard/i586/kernel-pae/_log
https://build.opensuse.org/public/build/Kernel:stable/standard/i586/kernel-vanilla/_log

It's built with gcc 10 from tumbleweed and it's a standard config from 
kerncvs:
