Giving them specific types has the benefit that
binary.BigEndian.Uint32(b) is now a direct call, not an
indirect via a mutable interface value, so it can potentially
be inlined.
Recent changes to the spec relaxed the rules for comparison,
so this code is still valid:
func isLittle(o binary.ByteOrder) { return o == binary.LittleEndian }
The change does break this potential idiom:
o := binary.BigEndian
if foo {
o = binary.LittleEndian
}
That must rewrite to give o an explicit binary.ByteOrder type.
On balance I think the benefit from the direct call and inlining
outweigh the cost of breaking that idiom.

Just enough to make mov instructions work,
which in turn is enough to make strconv work
when it avoids any floating point calculations.
That makes a bunch of other packages pass

Should suffice until hardware floating point
is available.

That is, move the pc/ln table and the symbol table
into the read-only data segment. This eliminates
the need for a special load command to map the
symbol table into memory, which makes the
information available on systems that couldn't handle
the magic load to 0x99000000, like NaCl and ARM QEMU
and Linux without config_highmem=y. It also
eliminates an #ifdef and some clumsy code to
find the symbol table on Windows.
The bad news is that the binary appears to be bigger
than it used to be. This is not actually the case, though:
the same amount of data is being mapped into memory
as before, and the tables are still read-only, so they're
still shared across multiple instances of the binary as
they were before. The difference is just that the tables
aren't squirreled away in some section that "size" doesn't
know to look at.
This is a checkpoint.
It probably breaks Windows and breaks NaCl more
than it used to be broken, but those will be fixed.
The logic involving -s needs to be revisited too.

New logging interface simplifies and generalizes.
1) Loggers now have only one output.
2) log.Stdout, Stderr, Crash and friends are gone.
Logging is now always to standard error by default.
3) log.Panic* replaces log.Crash*.
4) Exiting and panicking are not part of the logger's state; instead
the functions Exit* and Panic* simply call Exit or panic after
printing.
5) There is now one 'standard logger'. Instead of calling Stderr,
use Print etc. There are now triples, by analogy with fmt:
Print, Println, Printf
What was log.Stderr is now best represented by log.Println,
since there are now separate Print and Println functions
(and methods).
6) New functions SetOutput, SetFlags, and SetPrefix allow global
editing of the standard logger's properties. This is new
functionality. For instance, one can call
log.SetFlags(log.Lshortfile|log.Ltime|log.Lmicroseconds)
to get all logging output to show file name, line number, and
time stamp.
In short, for most purposes
log.Stderr -> log.Println or log.Print
log.Stderrf -> log.Printf
log.Crash -> log.Panicln or log.Panic
log.Crashf -> log.Panicf
log.Exit -> log.Exitln or log.Exit
log.Exitf -> log.Exitf (no change)
This has a slight breakage: since loggers now write only to one
output, existing calls to log.New() need to delete the second argument.
Also, custom loggers with exit or panic properties will need to be
reworked.
All package code updated to new interface.
The test has been reworked somewhat.
The old interface will be removed after the new release.
For now, its elements are marked 'deprecated' in their comments.

An exercise in reflection and an unusual tool.
From the usage message:
usage: gotry [packagedirectory] expression ...
Given one expression, gotry attempts to evaluate that expression.
Given multiple expressions, gotry treats them as a list of arguments
and result values and attempts to find a function in the package
that, given the first few expressions as arguments, evaluates to
the remaining expressions as results. If the first expression has
methods, it will also search for applicable methods.
If there are multiple expressions, a package directory must be
specified. If there is a package argument, the expressions are
evaluated in an environment that includes
import . "packagedirectory"
Examples:
gotry 3+4
# evaluates to 7
gotry strings '"abc"' '"c"' 7-5
# finds strings.Index etc.
gotry regexp 'MustCompile("^[0-9]+")' '"12345"' true
# finds Regexp.MatchString

This is a replacement for pending CL 2219042. It only contains
the raw suffixarray functionality with two methods:
- New create a new index from some data
- Lookup lookup occurences of a bytes slice in the data
Any other functionality (dealing with multiple data sets and
the corresponding position lists) is generic and doesn't have
to be part of this package.
Known performance bug: This implementation works fine for data sets
up to several megabytes as long as it doesn't contain very long
contiguous sequences of equal bytes. For instance, index creation for
all .go files under GOROOT (250KLOCs, approx. 9MB) takes ~50s on
2.66 GHz Intel Xeon as long as test/fixedbugs/257.go is excluded.
With that file, index creation times takes several days. 257.go contains
a string of 1M smiley faces.
There are more sophisticated suffixarray creation algorithms which
can handle very long common prefixes. The implementation can be
updated w/o the need to change the interface.
