internal compiler error: in tsubst_copy, at cp/pt.c:13970 using gcc 6.2

I have been unable to install Sonnet because of a compiler error. I tried to find if this was a bug with gcc and I found similar entries, however updating gcc did not work. This error happened to me using verions 5.3 and 6.2 of gcc (output of the latter below).

@kosklain: Yes, I am referring to the submodule and these are steps which worked for me together with the patch #6:

cd sonnet/tensorflow
git checkout r1.1
./configure
bazel build --config=opt --config=cuda //tensorflow/tools/pip_package:build_pip_package
bazel-bin/tensorflow/tools/pip_package/build_pip_package /tmp/tensorflow_pkg
sudo -H pip uninstall tensorflow
sudo -H pip install /tmp/tensorflow_pkg/tensorflow-1.1.0rc1-cp27-cp27mu-linux_x86_64.whl
cd ../
bazel build --config=opt //:install
bazel-bin/install /tmp/sonnet_pkg
sudo -H pip uninstall sonnet
sudo -H pip install /tmp/sonnet_pkg/sonnet-1.0-py2-none-any.whl

Got it working after using r1.1 branch for tensorflow, recompiled and installed from source. The master branch for tensorflow did not work for me. Also had to augment LD_LIBRARY_PATH and use the patch https://github.com/deepmind/sonnet/issues/6, both are described above.
