The test requires that timerproc runs, but busy loops and starves
the scheduler so that, with high probability, timerproc doesn't run.
Avoid the issue by expecting the test to succeed; if not, a major
outside timeout will kill it and let us know.
As you can see from the diffs, there have been several attempts to
fix this with chicanery, but none has worked. Don't bother trying
any more.
Fixes#8136.

See golang.org/s/go13nacl for design overview.
This CL is the mostly mechanical changes from rsc's Go 1.2 based NaCl branch, specifically 39cb35750369 to 500771b477cf from https://code.google.com/r/rsc-go13nacl. This CL does not include working NaCl support, there are probably two or three more large merges to come.
CL 15750044 is not included as it involves more invasive changes to the linker which will need to be merged separately.
The exact change lists included are
15050047: syscall: support for Native Client
15360044: syscall: unzip implementation for Native Client
15370044: syscall: Native Client SRPC implementation
15400047: cmd/dist, cmd/go, go/build, test: support for Native Client
15410048: runtime: support for Native Client
15410049: syscall: file descriptor table for Native Client
15410050: syscall: in-memory file system for Native Client
15440048: all: update +build lines for Native Client port
15540045: cmd/6g, cmd/8g, cmd/gc: support for Native Client
15570045: os: support for Native Client
15680044: crypto/..., hash/crc32, reflect, sync/atomic: support for amd64p32
15690044: net: support for Native Client
15690048: runtime: support for fake time like on Go Playground
15690051: build: disable various tests on Native Client

This lays the groundwork for making Go robust when the system's
calendar time jumps around. All input values to the runtimeTimer
struct now use the runtime clock as a common reference point.
This affects net.Conn.Set[Read|Write]Deadline(), time.Sleep(),
time.Timer, etc. Under normal conditions, behavior is unchanged.
Each platform and architecture's implementation of runtime·nanotime()
should be modified to use a monotonic system clock when possible.
Platforms/architectures modified and tested with monotonic clock:
linux/x86 - clock_gettime(CLOCK_MONOTONIC)

Use runtime.GC() as a stronger version of runtime.Gosched() which tends to bias the running goroutine in an otherwise idle system. This appears to reduce the worst case number of spins from 600 down to 30 on my 2 core system under high load.

On the Chinese Windows XP system that I'm using, GetTimeZoneInformation returns a struct containing "中国标准时间" (China Standard Time in Chinese) in both StandardName and DaylightName (which is correct, because China does not use DST). However, in registry, under key HKLM\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Time Zones\China Standard Time, the key Std and Dlt contain "中国标准时间" (China Standard Time in Chinese) and "中国夏季时间" (China Summer Time in Chinese) respectively. This means that time.toEnglishName() cannot determine the abbreviation for the local timezone (CST) and causes test failures (time.Local is empty)

Most Unix systems have their own time zone data,
so we almost never get far enough in the list to
discover that we cannot fall back to the zip file.

I tried to make it absolutely correct but there are too many
conflicting definitions for the official list of time zones.
Since when we're parsing we know when to expect
a time zone and we know what they look like if not exactly
what the definitive set is, we compromise. We accept any
three-character sequence of upper case letters, possibly
followed by a capital T (all four-letter zones end in T).
There is one crazy special case (ChST) and the possibility
of a signed hour offset for GMT.

Time is a tiny struct, so the compiler copies a Time by
copying each of the three fields.
The layout of a time on amd64 is [ptr int32 gap32 ptr].
Copying a Time onto a location that formerly held a pointer in the
second word changes only the low 32 bits, creating a different
but still plausible pointer. This confuses the garbage collector
when it appears in argument or result frames.
To avoid this problem, declare nsec as uintptr, so that there is
no gap on amd64 anymore, and therefore no partial pointers.
Note that rearranging the fields to put the int32 last still leaves
a gap - [ptr ptr int32 gap32] - because Time must have a total
size that is ptr-width aligned.
Update #5749
This CL is enough to fix the problem, but we should still do
