Instead of adding an -march=armv5t flag to the gcc command
line, the same effect is obtained with an ".arch armv5t"
pseudo op in the assembly file that uses armv5t instructions.

implementation and do not use stubs. As a result, enable the tests

If an iterator is started while a map is in the middle of a grow,
and the map has NaN keys, then those keys might get returned by
the iterator more than once. This fix makes the evacuation decision
deterministic and repeatable for NaN keys so each one gets returned
only once.

Changing from 4 kB to 8 kB brings significant improvement
on a variety of the Go 1 benchmarks, on both amd64
and 386 systems.
Significant runtime reductions:
amd64 386
GoParse -14% -1%
GobDecode -12% -20%
GobEncode -64% -1%
JSONDecode -9% -4%
JSONEncode -15% -5%
Template -17% -14%
In the longer term, khr's new stacks will avoid needing to
make this decision at all, but for Go 1.2 this is a reasonable
stopgap that makes performance significantly better.
Demand paging should mean that if the second 4 kB is not
used, it will not be brought into memory, so the change
should not adversely affect resident set size.
The same argument could justify bumping as high as 64 kB
on 64-bit machines, but there are diminishing returns
after 8 kB, and using 8 kB limits the possible unintended
memory overheads we are not aware of.

for the suffix if both are supplied.
Pass this flag from the go tool for build and install.

so that we don't need worry about specifying the required
libc version (note: as cmd/go will still be dynamically
linked to libc, we still need to perform the build on OSes
with an old enough libc. But as cmd/go doesn't rely on many
libc symbols, the situation should be significantly better).
Fixes#3564.

RawMessage is useful and mildly non-obvious.
Given the frequency with which RawMessage questions
show up on golang-nuts, and get answered with an example,
I suspect adding an example to the docs might help.

Not scanning the stack by frames means we are reintroducing
a few false positives into the collection. Run the finalizer registration
in its own goroutine so that stack is guaranteed to be out of
consideration in a later collection.
This is working around a regression from yesterday's tip, but
it's not a regression from Go 1.1.

Added a new $GO_DISTFLAGS to make.bash, and while we're here,
added mention $CXX in make.bash (CL 13704044).
Fixes#6448.
Update #3564
We can pass GO_DISTFLAGS=-s from misc/dist to make.bash so that
it will build a statically linked toolchain.
(Note: OS X doesn't have the concept of static linking, so don't
pass GO_DISTFLAGS=-s for OS X builds)
