Woah!  Can it be that easy?  That's as easy as changing the hash, no 
conversion necessary.

OK for branch?

	* varasm.c (record_tm_clone_pair): Use DECL_UID as hash.
	(get_tm_clone_pair): Same.

This won't work - DECL_UIDs are not stable -g vs. -g0 - only their
_order_ is stable - thus you won't get comparison fails with code generated
dependent on DECL_UID order, but you will if you depend on the DECL_UID
value (which you do by using it as a hash).

And we will still generate different object files based on garbage collector
settings this way - GC can shrink hashtables, causing re-hashing,
which changes the order of the elements.  It also causes re-ordering
with slight unrelated code changes (but if you say at runtime we always
sort the thing that might not be an issue).

Thus, the patch isn't a fix to get a stable order (you can't get
that for hashtable walks).  A quick fix is to collect the elements
into a VEC and qsort that after some stable key (like the DECL_UID).

Thanks,
Richard.
