Actually it is called "Whistlin' Willie's" and has a separate entrance
to the building from Jerry's, although it does indeed interconnect with
it once you are upstairs.  But they do have two separate check-outs.

I don't see anything on Jerry's web site that shows Willie's merged back
with Jerry's.  In fact, there are links to the Willie webpage  
http://whistlinwillies.com/  and they list two separate phone numbers. 
Bryan Wright didn't mention anything about a re-merger when we talked
about Willies a couple of weeks ago at FOTR, and Bryan lives a few
blocks away from the stores.
