An error during the compilation can be more precise
than an error at link time.
For 'func init', the error happens always: you can't forward
declare an init func because the name gets mangled.
For other funcs, the error happens only with the special
(and never used by hand) -= flag, which tells 6g the
package is pure go.
The go command now passes -= for pure Go packages.
Fixes#3705.

Enable cgo on OpenBSD.
The OpenBSD ld.so(1) does not currently support PT_TLS sections. Work
around this by fixing up the TCB that has been provided by librthread
and reallocating a TCB with additional space for TLS. Also provide a
wrapper for pthread_create, allowing zeroed TLS to be allocated for
threads created externally to Go.
Joint work with Shenghou Ma (minux).
Requires change 6846064.
Fixes#3205.

This CL breaks Go 1 API compatibility but it doesn't matter because
previous ListenUnixgram doesn't work in any use cases, oops.
The public API change is:
-pkg net, func ListenUnixgram(string, *UnixAddr) (*UDPConn, error)
+pkg net, func ListenUnixgram(string, *UnixAddr) (*UnixConn, error)
Fixes#3875.

This is language change. It is a backward-compatible
change but for code that relies on a run-time panic
when calling delete on a nil map (unlikely).

We have been using all three terms "indices", "indexes",
and "index expressions" indiscriminatly for index values.
With this change, "index" refers to an index value,
"indices" is the plural of "index", and "index expression"
refers to an array, slice, or map indexed by an index: a[x].

New in Go 1 will be nanosecond precision in the result of time.Now on Linux.
This will break code that stores time in external formats at microsecond
precision, reads it back, and expects to get exactly the same time.
Code like that can be fixed by using time.Now().Round(time.Microsecond)
instead of time.Now() in those contexts.

The spec didn't preclude invalid type assertions and
type switches, i.e., cases where a concrete type doesn't
implement the interface type in the assertion in the first
place. Both, the gc and gccgo compiler exclude these cases.
This is documenting the status quo.
Also:
- minor clean up of respective examples
- added sentence about default case in select statements
Fixes#4472.

Also:
- 'for' statements with a range clause do not accept send-only
channels
- '_, _ = range ch' is not equivalent to "_ = range ch" if ch
is a channel (rewriting the latter to the former leads to
an invalid range clause).
These clarifications document the status quo.

1) Built-ins are restricted like for expression statements.
This documents the status quo.
2) Calls cannot be parenthesized. The spec is not clear. gccgo
permits it already, gc doesn't. Be explicit in the spec.

We have the notion of a PackageName, not package identifier.
As is, it could construed that imports that rename a package
don't have an "imported package identifier" but a local one.

Do not skip the first symbol in the symbol table. Any other indexes
into the symbol table (for example, indexes in relocation entries)
will now refer to the symbol following the one that was intended.
Add an object that contains debug relocations, which debug/dwarf
failed to decode correctly. Extend the relocation tests to cover
this case.
Note that the existing tests passed since the symbol following the
symbol that required relocation is also of type STT_SECTION.
Fixes#4107.

This is an attempt at making the interaction between
these three constructs clearer. Specifically:
- return statements terminate a function, execute deferred
functions, return to the caller, and then execution
continues after the call
- panic calls terminate a function, execute deferred
functions, return to the caller, and then re-panic
- deferred functions are executed before a function _returns_
to its caller
The hope is that with this change it becomes clear when a
deferred function is executed (when a function returns),
and when it is not (when a program exits).

Both gc and gccgo always checked this for constant
expressions but the spec only mentions run-time
exceptions.
This CL also requires that constant divisors
must not be zero in non-constant integer expressions:
This is consistent with the spirit of the most
recent changes and it is consistent with constant
expressions. We don't want to specify the effect for
non-integer expressions (f/0.0 where f is a float or
complex number) because there the result f/g is not
further specified if a non-constant g is 0.

This is a language change: Until now, the spec required run-
time panics for some of these errors. Note that gc and gccgo
implemented this inconsistently, and that both compilers already
reported compile-time errors in some cases. This change makes
make() behave along the same vein as index expressions.
This addresses the spec aspect of issue 4085.

At the moment, gc and gccgo report compile-
time errors for certain constant indexes that
are out of bounds. The spec however requests
a run-time panic for out-of-bounds indexes
(http://tip.golang.org/ref/spec#Indexes).
Document the status quo.

2. mention you need to use an application specific password
if you're using 2-step verification
3. note you can edit files included in CL by 'hg change NNNN'
or 'hg file'
