Identifier
contains a pointer to character data, and we need to ensure that this pointer has enough spare bits in it forDeclBaseName
andDeclName
. This currently happens to be true because theStringMap
used to internIdentifier
pointers happens to place a 32-bit size field in theMapTableEntry
object, but it would be better to explicitly force the alignment we want and assert that it’s correct.(I need this commit because I will soon need to add spare bits to
Identifier
so that there are spare bits inDeclName
.)
