The alternative is to record enough information that the
trap handler know which registers contain cached globals
and can flush the registers back to their original locations.
That's significantly more work.
This only affects globals that have been written to.
Code that reads from a global should continue to registerize
as well as before.
Fixes#1304.

This broke a build on a Linux box I hadn't updated
in awhile. The hgignore files were preventing hg status
from showing and hg purge from cleaning up junk.

Embedded Go images in the installer dialog and
banner boxes, Go tree cloning uses version info
from the Go tool (readme updated), the installer
allows up/down-grading and reparing of the version
that's installed, added two registry values.

They are portability problems and the options are almost always zero in practice anyway.

Added the (properly formatted) license file back,
the installer adds go\bin to the system PATH now,
the output package names are in line with the linux
and darwin versions, dist.bat extracts GOARCH in a
sane way, readme cleanup.
Tested on Windows 7 only. It would be helpful if
someone else could give it a try. See the readme
for details.

While we're here, get rid of the old names for the escaping functions.

My theory is that the call to f() allocates, which triggers
a garbage collection, which itself may do some allocation,
which is being counted. Running a garbage collection
before starting the test should avoid this problem.
Fixes#2894 (I hope).

ARM doesn't have the concept of scale, so I renamed the field
Addr.scale to Addr.flag to better reflect its true meaning.

It's in an odd style and it's unclear what true purpose it serves as
a test other than to be another Go program.

* disallow embedding of C type (Fixes issue 2552)
* detect 0-length array (Fixes issue 2806)
* use typedefs when possible, to avoid attribute((unavailable)) (Fixes issue 2888)
* print Go types constructed from C types using original C types (Fixes issue 2612)
This fix changes _cgo_export.h to repeat the preamble from import "C".
Otherwise the fix to issue 2612 is impossible, since it cannot refer to
types that have not been defined. If people are using //export and
putting non-header information in the preamble, they will need to
refactor their code.

morebuf holds a pc/sp from the last stack split or
reflect.call or panic/recover. If the pc is a closure,
the reference will keep it from being collected.
moreargp holds a pointer to the arguments from the
last stack split or reflect.call or panic/recover.
Normally it is a stack pointer and thus not of interest,
but in the case of reflect.call it is an allocated argument
list and holds up the arguments to the call.

The garbage collector can avoid scanning this section, with
reduces collection time as well as the number of false positives.
Helps a little bit with issue 909, but certainly does not solve it.

We should, after Go 1, make them work the same as
package xml, that is, make them appear in the outer
struct. For now turn them off so that people do not
depend on the old behavior.
Fixing them is issue 3069.

The m->cret word holds the C return value when returning
across a stack split boundary. It was not being cleared after
use, which means that the return value (if a C function)
or else the value of AX/R0 at the time of the last stack unsplit
was being kept alive longer than necessary. Clear it.
I think the effect here should be very small, but worth fixing
anyway.
