This will actually not work correctly in some cases.  The problem is, if 
the prevailing decl is already part of another chain (say in another 
block_var list) you would break the current chain.  Hence block vars need 
special handling in the lto streamer (another reason why tree_chain is not 
the most clever think to use for this chain).  This problem area needs to 
be solved somehow if block info is to be preserved correctly.

That's also a large hammer as it basically will mean no debug info after 
LTO :-/ Sigh, at this point I have no good solution that doesn't involve 
quite some work, perhaps your hack is good enough for the time being, 
though I hate it :)


Ciao,
Michael.
