[Bug target/33704] AIX runs c++ constructors in incorrect order

If it's a request to improve the AIX linker, should we even keep this PR
open?

David, as a sidenote (because you're at IBM), this is the sort of thing that
makes AIX such an unpopular target to do development on. It just surprises
me that 10+ years after everyone else had their linker fixed to support proper
C++ templates and initialization order, IBM's linker still can't do it. I
found porting our 350 kloc template-heavy code to AIX one of the more painful
exercises I ever did. That's not your fault, but maybe you can pass it on to
someone in charge. Sigh, and sorry for the digression...

W.
