I sent a patch that fixes a bug introduced by this patch: 
https://gcc.gnu.org/pipermail/gcc-patches/2022-October/603203.html

What you are seeing could have been caused by the same bug since it involves an 
uninitialized variable.

This patch causes a bootstrap comparison failure on AIX.  It apparently does 
not cause a failure on PPC64BE Linux with the same ABI, so I suspect that the 
failure may be related to the way that function aliases are implemented on AIX, 
which doesn't have ELF symbol alias semantics.

"This change will also simplify call site lookups since now location with 
discriminator will uniquely identify the call site (no callee function name is 
needed)."

I will open a PR with more information about the comparison difference now that 
I have a work-around to bring AIX back to a bootstrappable state.  Any thoughts 
about what could be going wrong?

Thanks, David
