My code relies on all the numbers being the same, ie. that Go will report
the same as C for both C.struct_s{} and S{}.
AFAICT Go and C agree on struct layout on linux/{amd64,386} perfectly in
all cases I've tested (thousands probably).
Is this a bug or are my expectations ill founded?
Thanks in advance for any insights.
