When writing stack frames to the pprof CPU profile machinery, it is
    very important to insure that the frames emitted do not contain any
    frames corresponding to artifacts of the profiling process itself
    (signal handlers, sigprof, etc). This patch changes runtime.sigprof to
    strip out those frames from the raw stack generated by
    "runtime.callers".

    The libffi library doesn't understand zero-sized objects.
    When we see a zero-sized field in a struct, just skip it when
    converting to the FFI data structures. There is no value to pass in
    any case, so not telling libffi about the field doesn't affect
    anything.

    Background: since gccgo does not currently merge identical types at link time,
    the reflect function canonicalize() exists to choose a canonical specimen
    for each set of identical types.
    In this way, user code has the guarantee that identical types
    will always compare as ==
    
    Change: arrange reflect functions MapOf(), SliceOf(), StructOf() etc.
    to call canonicalize() on the types they create, before storing the types
    in internal lookup caches and returning them.
    
    This fixes known cases where canonicalize() is needed but was missing.
    Supersedes https://golang.org/cl/112575 and mostly fixes issue 25284.

    cmd/go: don't pass -compiler flag to vet

    cmd/go, cmd/vet, go/internal/gccgoimport: make vet work with gccgo
    
    When using gccgo/GoLLVM, there is no package file for a standard
    library package. Since it is impossible for the go tool to rebuild the
    package, and since the package file exists only in the form of a .gox
    file, this seems like the best choice. Unfortunately it was confusing
    vet, which wanted to see a real file. This caused vet to report errors
    about missing package files for standard library packages. The
    gccgoimporter knows how to correctly handle this case. Fix this by
    
    1) telling vet which packages are standard;
    2) letting vet skip those packages;
    3) letting the gccgoimporter handle this case.
    
    As a separate required fix, gccgo/GoLLVM has no runtime/cgo package,
    so don't try to depend on it (as it happens, this fixes golang/go#25324).
    
    The result is that the cmd/go vet tests pass when using -compiler=gccgo.

    Long long long ago Go permitted writing
        func F()
    in one file and writing
        func F() {}
    in another file.  This was removed from the language, and that is now
    considered to be a multiple definition error.  Gccgo never caught up
    to that, and it has been permitting this invalid code for some time.
    
    Stop permitting it, so that we give correct errors.  Since we've
    supported it for a long time, the compiler uses it in a couple of
    cases: it predeclares the hash/equal methods if it decides to create
    them while compiling another function, and it predeclares main.main as
    a mechanism for getting the right warning if a program uses the wrong
    signature for main.  For simplicity, keep those existing uses.
    
    This required a few minor changes in libgo which were relying,
