The rule is not concistently followed by gc.
It appears that gccgo is ignoring it. go/types
does not implement this rule. However, both
gccgo and now go/types can compile/type-check
the entire std library (and thus all the shift
expressions occuring in it) w/o errors. For
more details see the discussion in issue 4883.

It's a common mistake to build a recursive String method; explain it well and
show how to avoid it.

The only functional change is the new section
on terminating statements.
There is a minor syntax rewrite (not change)
of function declarations to make it easier to
refer to the notion of a function from all places
where it is used (function decls, method decls,
and function literals).
Includes some minor fixes/additions of missing links.
Based closely on Russ' proposal.
Fixes#65.

Replacement for CL 7370053 which attempted to make fallthrough's
syntactically a part of switch statements. Because they may be
labeled, fixing that CL completely would require too much spec
surgery.

This is documenting the status quo. The previous cleanup
added this language as an implementation restriction, but
at least for now it is really part of the language proper.

The gc compilers already behave this way. It was an explicit
decision during the very long constant design discussions,
but it appears not to have made it into the spec.

The spec is not clear about whether this is allowed or not,
but both compilers allow it, because the reflect implementation
takes advantage of it. Document current behavior.

documenting it will keep us from forgetting it as we get closer to Go 1.1.
