An experiment: allow structs to be copied even if they
contain unexported fields. This gives packages the
ability to return opaque values in their APIs, like reflect
does for reflect.Value but without the kludgy hacks reflect
resorts to.
In general, we trust programmers not to do silly things
like *x = *y on a package's struct pointers, just as we trust
programmers not to do unicode.Letter = unicode.Digit,
but packages that want a harder guarantee can introduce
an extra level of indirection, like in the changes to os.File
in this CL or by using an interface type.
All in one CL so that it can be rolled back more easily if
we decide this is a bad idea.

For example, if you are debugging an optimization
problem you can now run
GCFLAGS=-N gotest
This is a convention for make, not for the general build,
so it may go away or be done differently in the eventual
'go' command.
The plan is that people will be able to test their code for
rune safety by doing GCFLAGS=-r.

Unfortunate sequence of events is:
1. maxcpu=2, mcpu=1, grunning=1
2. starttheworld creates an extra M:
maxcpu=2, mcpu=2, grunning=1
4. the goroutine calls runtime.GOMAXPROCS(1)
maxcpu=1, mcpu=2, grunning=1
5. since it sees mcpu>maxcpu, it calls gosched()
6. schedule() deschedules the goroutine:
maxcpu=1, mcpu=1, grunning=0
7. schedule() call getnextandunlock() which
fails to pick up the goroutine again,
because canaddcpu() fails, because mcpu==maxcpu
8. then it sees that grunning==0,

Escape analysis was incorrectly assuming that

not the best expression of the algorithm. The old {.section

means that there has to be one or more

those, there have to be one or more lines

different error messages from a particular

that both errors are produced.

The list elements are already being allocated out of a
single memory buffer. We can drop the Link* pointer
following and the memory it requires, replacing it with
index operations.
The change also keeps a channel from containing a pointer
back into its own allocation block, which would create a
cycle. Blocks involved in cycles are not guaranteed to be
finalized properly, and channels depend on finalizers to
free OS-level locks on some systems. The self-reference
was keeping channels from being garbage collected.

the content of buffered channels with the new data structure.
