If you set GODEBUG=cgocheck=2 the runtime package will use the write
barrier to detect cases where a Go program writes a Go pointer into
non-Go memory. In conjunction with the existing cgo checks, and the
not-yet-implemented cgo check for exported functions, this should
reliably detect all cases (that do not import the unsafe package) in
which a Go pointer is incorrectly shared with C code. This check is
optional because it turns on the write barrier at all times, which is
known to be expensive.
Update #12416.

This implements part of the proposal in issue 12416 by adding dynamic
checks for passing pointers from Go to C. This code is intended to be
on at all times. It does not try to catch every case. It does not
implement checks on calling Go functions from C.
The new cgo checks may be disabled using GODEBUG=cgocheck=0.

cgo panics in Package.rewriteRef for:
var a = C.enum_test(1)
or
p := new(C.enum_test)
when the corresponding enum type is not defined.
Check nil values for Type fields and issue a proper
error instead.

cgo represents all 0-sized and unsized types internally as [0]byte. This means that pointers to incomplete types would be interchangable, even if given a name by typedef.
