Hi, this patch fixes several different ICEs related to handling aliases in WHOPR partitioning. It took me over week debug this, but when variable alias is added to a boundary and its destination is not added, we get queue of unforutnate events where the destinatoin gets analyzed and added at ltrans time resulting in interesting miscompilation seen at Mozilla with some vtables. The problem is that constructor won't get streamed when the declaration is not in varpool at partitioning time and thus once the variable is re-added it has zero constructor. Of course the problem manifests itself in various weird ways depending on ordering of linker command maing it very difficult to reduce anything.
While working on this I also noticed that PR 52634 is about related problem where aliases are incorectly partitioned into multiple partitions. The patch also fixes the varpool ICEs mentioned in the other two PRs. I failed to produce testcase version of PR52722 testcase, since it does not link now either, but it won't ICE. I will commit the patch and wait for some time, but I would like to backport it to 4.7, since it solves quite nasty misoptimization problem. At mainline after this patch i would like to follow with series of cleanups and API changes I have in queue for symtab work.
