These pointer are used for class level equality comparison. As a workaround, using -Xshare:off flag during regression testing, this will be fixed in a follow up patch.

Re-allocations happens because upfront space reservation for growable array do not take into account multifield bundle size.

This prevents introducing special handlings for non-vector Locations in existing routines since an InlineTypeNode may have scalar / vector / constant inputs (scalarized multifield bundle initialization during make_default [11]).

Looks good to me!
