New in Go 1 will be nanosecond precision in the result of time.Now on Linux.
This will break code that stores time in external formats at microsecond
precision, reads it back, and expects to get exactly the same time.
Code like that can be fixed by using time.Now().Round(time.Microsecond)
instead of time.Now() in those contexts.

The fix for issue 4403 may include more calls to time.Now().UnixNano(). I was concerned that if this function allocated it would cause additional garbage on the heap. It turns out that it doesn't, which is a nice surprise.
Also add benchmark for Now().UnixNano()

Preparation for forthcoming CL 6624051: Will make it
easier to see if/what changes are incurred by it.
The alignment changes in this CL are due to CL 6610051
(fix to alignment heuristic) where it appears that an
old version of gofmt was run (and thus the correct
alignment updates were not done).

The code was trying to interpret a uint32 n as a signed quantity
and then store it in an int. For this, int(n) currently works, but when
int becomes 64 bits one must write int(int32(n)) instead, to get
the 32-bit sign extension.

YearDay provides the day in the year represented by a given time.Time
object. This value is normally computed as part of other date calculations,
but not exported.

The recent shuffle in parsing formats exposed probably unintentional
behavior in time.Parse, namely that it was mostly ignoring ".99999"
in the format, producing the following behavior:
fmt.Println(time.Parse("03:04:05.999 MST", "12:00:00.888 PDT")) // error (.888 unexpected)
fmt.Println(time.Parse("03:04:05.999", "12:00:00")) // error (input too short)
fmt.Println(time.Parse("03:04:05.999 MST", "12:00:00 PDT")) // ok (extra bytes on input make it ok)
http://play.golang.org/p/ESJ1UYXzq2
API CHANGE:
This CL makes all three examples valid: ".999" can match an
empty string or else a fractional second with at most nine digits.
Fixes#3701.

When I increased the number of bits that gccgo uses for
untyped floats, the expression 0.52*1e9 was no longer
integral. This patch fixes that.

I have a small web server that simply sets several cookies
along with an expires header, and then returns. In the
cpuprofile for a 200k request benchmark, time.Time.Format()
was showing up as 8.3% of cpu usage. Giving the buffer an
inital capacity to avoid reallocs on append drops it down to
7.6%.

For mysterious reasons, the existing string was just wrong: it was missing a colon.
There is no apparent reason for this discrepancy.
This should be safe to fix because existing uses would not be RFC822-compliant;
people cannot be depending on it to generate correct mail headers.

In -test.short mode, skip measuring the upper bound of time
sleeps. The API only guarantees minimum bounds on sleeps,
anyway, so this isn't a bug we're ignoring as much as it is
simply observing bad builder virtualization and/or loaded
machines.
We keep the test in full mode where developers will
presumably be running on a lightly-loaded, native, fast
machine.

go/doc: move Examples to go/ast
cmd/go: use go/doc to read examples
src/pkg: update examples to use new convention
This is to make whole file examples more readable. When presented as a
complete function, preceding an Example with its output is confusing.
The new convention is to put the expected output in the final comment
of the example, preceded by the string "output:" (case insensitive).
An idiomatic example looks like this:
// This example demonstrates Foo by doing bar and quux.
func ExampleFoo() {
// example body that does bar and quux
// Output:
// example output
}

encoding/xml: handle time.Time as recognized type
The long term plan is to define an interface that time.Time
can implement and that encoding/xml can call, but we are
not going to try to define that interface before Go 1.
Instead, special-case time.Time in package xml, because
it is such a fundamental type, as a stop-gap.
The eventual methods will behave this way.

Consequently, remove many package Makefiles,
and shorten the few that remain.
gomake becomes 'go tool make'.
Turn off test phases of run.bash that do not work,
flagged with $BROKEN. Future CLs will restore these,
but this seemed like a big enough CL already.
