Hmm, that is interesting... You're absolutely right, the program I was compiling is a Visual Studio program. (The code is actually cross-platform, partly thanks to the use of Boost, but for historical reasons it only has a Windows build system in the form of Visual Studio projects.) I'd definitely like to try my experiment again with GCC or clang at some point.
