x/tools: Tests failing with unified IR builders

[timothy-king]

Unit tests for golang.org/x/tools/go/internal/gcimporter are failing for linux-amd64-unified builder. Seems to require GOEXPERIMENT=unified. Impacts libraries that use gcimporter too like x/tools/ssa.

Noticed on https://storage.googleapis.com/go-build-log/11ec59a6/linux-amd64-unified_c370f95c.log

Reproduces with gotip @ 5c4ed73 and x/tools @ 4077921f.

$ GOEXPERIMENT=unified gotip test golang.org/x/tools/go/internal/gcimporter
--- FAIL: TestImportTestdata (0.03s)

        ])
    gcimporter_test.go:61: go tool compile exports.go failed: exit status 1

Here are all of the failing cases in the log:

Did anyone already find the culprit change?
This is blocking all changes made to x/tools.

https://go-review.googlesource.com/c/go/+/386004 according to the builder history.

This is because I haven't copied the gcimporter changes to the x/tools repo yet. I knew I needed to do that eventually, but didn't think the x/tools bots were testing against the unified builder.

I guess I can prioritize landing that today.

FYI, I'm out-of-office today (I'll be back tomorrow). I was hoping CL 398615 would be a quick fix I could submit this morning before heading out, but it doesn't look like I'm going to have that ready in time. Each CL revision seems to reveal more failing tests, and the test logs don't always indicate which specific tests within a package actually failed.

I'd prefer not to rollback the cmd/compile change, but we can do that if really necessary. If having the "FAIL" text on the dashboard is an issue, I'd lean towards just disabling the unified+x/tools builder temporarily.

I just noticed that #48595 was filed for what appears to be a related issue back in September. 😅
