Since NUL usually terminates strings in underlying syscalls, allowing
it when converting string arguments is a security risk, especially
when dealing with filenames. For example, a program might reason that
filename like "/root/..\x00/" is a subdirectory or "/root/" and allow
access to it, while underlying syscall will treat "\x00" as an end of
that string and the actual filename will be "/root/..", which might
be unexpected. Returning EINVAL when string arguments have NUL in
them makes sure this attack vector is unusable.

Instead use a new type, "Note", whose underlying
type is just a string. This change allows us to

The set of errors forwarded by the os package varied with system and
was therefore non-portable.
Three helpers added for portable error checking: IsExist, IsNotExist, and IsPermission.
One or two more may need to come, but let's keep the set very small to discourage
thinking about errors that way.

Restore package os/signal, with new API:
Notify replaces Incoming, allowing clients
to ask for certain signals only. Also, signals
go to everyone who asks, not just one client.
This could plausibly move into package os now
that there are no magic side effects as a result
of the import.
Update runtime for new API: move common Unix
signal handling code into signal_unix.c.
(It's so easy to do this now that we don't have
to edit Makefiles!)

This reduces the overhead necessary to work with OS-specific
file details, hides the implementation of FileStat, and
preserves the implementation-specific nature of Sys.
Expressions such as:
stat.(*os.FileInfo).Sys.(*syscall.Stat_t).Uid
fi1.(*os.FileStat).SameFile(fi2.(*os.FileStat))
Are now spelled as::
stat.Sys().(*syscall.Stat_t).Uid
os.SameFile(fi1, fi2)

Without this change, fd3 can be collected by the garbage
collector and finalized, which causes the file descriptor to

This lets the client of go/build specify additional tags that
can be recognized in a // +build directive. For example,
a build for a custom environment like App Engine might
include "appengine" in the BuildTags list, so that packages
can be written with some files saying
// +build appengine (build only on app engine)
or
// +build !appengine (build only when NOT on app engine)
App Engine here is just a hypothetical context. I plan to use
this in the cmd/go sources to distinguish the bootstrap version
of cmd/go (which will not use networking) from the full version
using a custom tag. It might also be useful in App Engine.
Also, delete Build and Script, which we did not end up using for
cmd/go and which never got turned on for real in goinstall.
