The patch changes the Go frontend to not export function descriptors
for unexported names. They aren't needed, and could potentially cause
unlikely symbol name collisions. Also, the runtime package's
reference to main could cause the runtime package to define
main.main..f, which could also be defined in the main package if it
does something like fmt.Print(main). That will normally work but will
fail with a multiple symbol definition error when using -static-libgo.
Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. Committed
to mainline.
