I've also had a look at the Solaris/SPARC failures, which are unrelated
to the 64-bit Solaris/x86 problem previously identified. I could trace
it to the most trivial testcase with channels:
package main
func send(ch chan<- int) {
ch <- 1
}
func main() {
ch := make(chan int)
go send(ch)
recv := <-ch
if recv != 1 {
panic (recv)
}
print(recv, "\n")
}
On Solaris/SPARC (both 32 and 64-bit), this fails with
panic: 0
I've still to closer investigate why this happens. I suspect that this
is also the cause of the IRIX failures (a libgo build is currently
running). Maybe this is just and endianess problem: it's interesting
that 32-bit Solaris/x86 works (little-endian), while 32-bit
Solaris/SPARC and IRIX (both big-endian) don't.
