why is that?
When randomization is off both gcc and clang must generate the same
offsets, since it's C standard.
bcc rewriter issue is odd. I suspect it was broken from day one.
Meaning that bcc didn't support poking into anonymous union and structs.

thanks for confirming. It means that gcc randomization plugin is broken
and has to be fixed with regard to adjusting debug info while
randomizing the fields.
