We're using the C++ compiler rather than the self-hosted compiler because the self-hosted compiler does not yet support async. Yes, it sometimes fails to compile correct code (by crashing) or compiles correct code to incorrect code.

Watch out, the zig devs have said that actually all languages miscompile stuff routinely and if you say anything bad about zig online they'll brigade-flag your posts!
