Please review 😉  ….

JDK-8304291<https://bugs.openjdk.org/browse/JDK-8304291> :  [AIX] Broken build after JDK-8301998

https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/13529


This fixes the harfbuzz build with xlc16.
Most likely the workarounds can be removed  when xlc17 is used in a couple of months .

Thanks, Matthias

Hi Goetz,

Thanks for the head's up. If we aren't able to fix the issue with xlclang in a way that is approved by the community, then the project will not be build-able unless we bump the compiler version to 17. That seems quite strict for jdk11.

However, Matthias has a work around that seems to work well in my testing, so the risk is mitigated somewhat. It's just a matter of figuring out why it works, and carrying the patch through to subsequent HB version upgrades.

Tyler
