The UNDEF instruction was listed in the instruction data as having the next instruction in the stream as its successor. This confused the optimizer into adding a load where it wasn't needed, in turn confusing the liveness analysis pass for GC bitmaps into thinking that the variable was live.

At present, when a package identifier is used outside of a selector expression, gc gives the error "use of package %S outside selector". However, in the selector expression x.f, the spec defines f as the selector. This change makes the error clearer.

mp->mcache can be concurrently modified by runtime·helpgc.
In such case sigprof can remember mcache=nil, then helpgc sets it to non-nil,
then sigprof restores it back to nil, GC crashes with nil mcache.

Fix three broken tests in test.bash
The test for issue 4568 was confused by go $ACTION . producing a package root of "", avoiding this mode fixes the test but weakens the test.
The test for issue 4773 was broken on linux because math/Rand would fail to resolve as a package causing the test for duplicates to be skipped.
Finally, the last breakage was a small change in the error message.
Also, add test for foldDup.

This CL is in preparation to make cgo work on freebsd/arm.
The signedness of C char might be a problem when we make bare syscall
APIs, Go structures, using built-in bootstrap scripts with cgo because
they do translate C stuff to Go stuff internally. For now almost all
the C compilers assume that the type of char will be unsigned on arm
by default but it makes a different view from amd64, 386.
This CL just passes -fsigned-char, let the type of char be signed,
option which is supported on both gcc and clang to the underlying C
compilers through cgo for avoiding such inconsistency on syscall API.

This CL is in preparation to make cgo work on freebsd/arm.
It's just for fixing build fails on freebsd/arm, we still need to
update z-files later for fixing several package test fails.
How to generate z-files on freebsd/arm in the bootstrapping phase:
1. run freebsd on appropriate arm-eabi platforms
2. both syscall z-files and runtime def-files in the current tree are
broken about EABI padding, fix them by hand
3. run make.bash again to build $GOTOOLDIR/cgo
4. use $GOTOOLDIR/cgo directly

Whitespace characters are allowed in quoted-string according to RFC 5322 without
being "Q"-encoding. Address.String() already always formats the name portion in
quoted string, so whitespace characters should be allowed in there.

I just added support for goto statements to my GopherJS project and now I am trying to get rid of my patches. These occurrences of goto however are a bit problematic:
GopherJS has to emulate gotos, so there is some performance drawback when doing so. In this case the drawback is major, since this is a core function of math/big which is called quite often. Additionally I can't see any reason here why the implementation with gotos should be preferred over my proposal.
That's why I would kindly ask to include this patch, even though it is functional equivalent to the existing code.

Introduce two new environment variables, CC_FOR_TARGET and CXX_FOR_TARGET.
CC_FOR_TARGET defaults to CC and is used when compiling for GOARCH, while
CC remains for compiling for GOHOSTARCH.
CXX_FOR_TARGET defaults to CXX and is used when compiling C++ code for
GOARCH.
CGO_ENABLED defaults to disabled when cross compiling and has to be
explicitly enabled.

CL 56120043 fixed and cleaned up TLS on ARM after introducing liblink, but
left flag_shared broken. This CL restores the (unsupported) flag_shared
behaviour by simply rewriting access to $runtime.tlsgm(SB) with
runtime.tlsgm(SB), to compensate for the extra indirection when going from
the R_ARM_TLS_LE32 relocation to the R_ARM_TLS_IE32 relocation.
Also, remove unnecessary symbol lookup left after 56120043.
