Any chance you could do a little analysis on this? All Kazu's change
does is cause us to ignore certain (bogus) equivalences. If that's
causing stage2 to be mis-compiled, then, well we've clearly got deeper
problems.
Having at least a rough idea of the root cause of the ia64 failure
would be good as I can keep that issue in mind as a rethink how the
jump thread selection code ought to work when dealing with loops.
You might be able to at least get some idea of the failure mode by
looking at what jumps are threaded by DOM before/after Kazu's patch.
That may be faster than actually sitting down with the debugger to
figure out what's being mis-compiled.
