This patch improves compiler efficiency by placing the Homonym attribute
at offset zero. Homonym is a heavily used field.
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, committed on trunk
gcc/ada/
* gen_il-gen.adb: Set the number of concrete nodes that have the
Homonym field to a higher number than any other field. This
isn't true, but it forces Homonym's offset to be chosen first,
so it will be at offset zero and hence slot zero.
