crypto/tls has two functions for creating a client connection: Dial,
which most users are expected to use, and Client, which is the
lower-level API.
Dial does what you expect: it gives you a secure connection to the host
that you specify and the majority of users of crypto/tls appear to work
fine with it.
Client gives more control but needs more care. Specifically, if it
wasn't given a server name in the tls.Config then it didn't check that
the server's certificates match any hostname - because it doesn't have
one to check against. It was assumed that users of the low-level API
call VerifyHostname on the certificate themselves if they didn't supply
a hostname.
A review of the uses of Client both within Google and in a couple of
external libraries has shown that nearly all of them got this wrong.
Thus, this change enforces that either a ServerName or
InsecureSkipVerify is given. This does not affect tls.Dial.

Package runtime's C functions written to be called from Go
started out written in C using carefully constructed argument
lists and the FLUSH macro to write a result back to memory.
For some functions, the appropriate parameter list ended up
being architecture-dependent due to differences in alignment,
so we added 'goc2c', which takes a .goc file containing Go func
declarations but C bodies, rewrites the Go func declaration to
equivalent C declarations for the target architecture, adds the
needed FLUSH statements, and writes out an equivalent C file.
That C file is compiled as part of package runtime.
Native Client's x86-64 support introduces the most complex
alignment rules yet, breaking many functions that could until
now be portably written in C. Using goc2c for those avoids the
breakage.
Separately, Keith's work on emitting stack information from
the C compiler would require the hand-written functions
to add #pragmas specifying how many arguments are result
parameters. Using goc2c for those avoids maintaining #pragmas.
For both reasons, use goc2c for as many Go-called C functions
as possible.
This CL is a replay of the bulk of CL 15400047 and CL 15790043,
both of which were reviewed as part of the NaCl port and are
checked in to the NaCl branch. This CL is part of bringing the
NaCl code into the main tree.
No new code here, just reformatting and occasional movement
into .h files.

Match used len(ar.files) == 0 to mean "match everything"
but it also deleted matched things from the list, so once you
had matched everything you asked for, match returned true
for whatever was left in the archive too.
Concretely, if you have an archive containing f1, f2, then
pack t foo.a f1
would match f1 and then, because len(ar.files) == 0 after
deleting f1 from the match list, also match f2.
Avoid the problem by recording explicitly whether match
matches everything.

[Repeat of CL 64100044, after 32-bit fix in CL 66170043.]
Precisestack makes stack collection completely precise,
in the sense that there are no "used and not set" errors
in the collection of stack frames, no times where the collector
reads a pointer from a stack word that has not actually been
initialized with a pointer (possibly a nil pointer) in that function.
The most important part is interfaces: precisestack means
that if reading an interface value, the interface value is guaranteed
to be initialized, meaning that the type word can be relied
upon to be either nil or a valid interface type word describing
the data word.
This requires additional zeroing of certain values on the stack
on entry, which right now costs about 5% overall execution
time in all.bash. That cost will come down before Go 1.3
(issue 7345).
There are at least two known garbage collector bugs right now,
issues 7343 and 7344. The first happens even without precisestack.
The second I have only seen with precisestack, but that does not
mean that precisestack is what causes it. In fact it is very difficult
to explain by what precisestack does directly. Precisestack may
be exacerbating an existing problem. Both of those issues are
marked for Go 1.3 as well.
The reasons for enabling precisestack now are to give it more
time to soak and because the copying stack work depends on it.

Users of the low-level, Client function are frequenctly missing the
fact that, unless they pass a ServerName to the TLS connection then it
cannot verify the certificates against any name.

Update #6853
For an ephemeral binary - one created, run, and then deleted -
there is no need to write dwarf debug information, since the
binary will not be used with gdb. In this case, instruct the linker
not to spend time and disk space generating the debug information
by passing the -w flag to the linker.
Omitting dwarf information reduces the size of most binaries by 25%.
We may be more aggressive about this in the future.

it uses the standard symbol table for the binary format

on most binaries.

c-mode classically uses ff-find-other-file to toggle between headers
and implementation. For Go it seemingly makes sense to jump between
implementation and test.
While there's no enforced mapping of file names for tests, the mapping
in this CL seems to be very common at least throughout the standard
library, and ff-find-other-file fails gracefully when the mapping
doesn't apply.
