I tested the global-removal variant based on trunk commit 5453f858146 on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.
The bootstrap completed successfully, including the stage2/stage3 comparison, and the new PR126355 testcase passed. However, the full regression test exposed ICEs in the following existing tests with -O3 -g: g++.dg/torture/covariant-1.C g++.dg/torture/pr45699.C g++.dg/torture/pr46287.C g++.dg/torture/pr48661.C g++.dg/torture/pr58585.C g++.dg/torture/pr59226.C g++.dg/torture/pr94202.C They all fail at the same assertion: old_die = lookup_decl_die (decl); gcc_assert (old_die != NULL); in dwarf2out_abstract_function. A representative backtrace is: dwarf2out_abstract_function tree_function_versioning save_inline_function_body inline_transform These cases involve C++ thunks expanded through the inline path. Without the DECL_IGNORED_P setting, final debug processing reaches declarations which do not have an early DIE, and lookup_decl_die returns NULL. Thus, although g++.dg/other/pr87574.C itself no longer reproduces its original ICE on current trunk, it is not a sufficient guard for the underlying condition. At least some forced GIMPLE thunks expanded through the inline path still rely on DECL_IGNORED_P. I therefore will not post the global-removal variant as v2. The caller-specific save/restore in cgraph_node::create_wrapper remains the narrower fix: it bypasses the protection only for an ICF wrapper which reuses the original source declaration and its early DIE, while leaving late-created thunks in the other callers unchanged. Unless there is a better way to distinguish forced thunks which already have a usable early DIE, I suggest keeping the ICF-local approach.
