No, you get a DECL, but yes, I think operand_equal_p will work.
Consider two _same_ variable sizes, you'll not see that you
have to return zero then?  But yes, in case you have types
globbed to the canonical type (but not FIELD_DECLs) then
you'll get false !operand_equal_p as well.

The question is really what is desired here.  If you want/need precision
for non-constant offsets then you have to look at the COMPONENT_REF
trees because the relevant offset (SSA name) is only there
(in TREE_OPERAND (component_ref, 2)).

If you want to give up for non-constants and can do that without
correctness issue then fine (but Ada probably would like to have
it - so also never forget to include Ada in testing here ;))

Oh, OK ... a bit more explaining commentary might be nice
(at the top of the function - basically what the input
constraints to the FIELD_DECLs are).

Btw, the offsets in FIELD_DECLs are relative to DECL_CONTEXT so
comparing when DECL_CONTEXT are not related at all doesn't make
any sense.  Well, unless we know _those_ are at the same offset,
so - the constraint for the FIELD_DECLs we compare is that
the containing structure type object instances live at the same
address?
