--- Comment #2 from Ian Lance Taylor <ian at airs dot com> ---
OK, now I remember that you are doing some kind of complicated mix of the GCC 7
compiler and the mainline libgo, for reasons that I don't understand.

With respect, bugzilla is not the right place to report problems while doing
that.  Bugzilla is for bugs in the ordinary unmodified releases and mainline
compiler.  If you are moving things around, and something breaks, you are
responsible for figuring out whether you broke it or whether it was always
broken.  And if you file a report in Bugzilla anyhow, please always explain
exactly what you changed.  It's impossible for us to fix problems in sources
that have been modified in ways that we don't know about.

My time, like the time of all GCC developers, is very limited.  The time I
spend investigating bug reports in modified sources is time that I am not doing
useful work.  Please 1) use a release; or 2) use unmodified mainline; or 3)
figure out these problems yourself, perhaps using a mailing list, such as
gcc-help@gcc.gnu.org or gofrontend-dev@googlegroups.com.  If you use a mailing
list, please explain exactly what you are doing and why.  I can't promise that
anyone will help, but, in any case, please don't use bugzilla.

I'm sorry I can't be more helpful about this, but it's just not a productive
use of my limited time.
