to avoid unintentionally clobber R9/R10.
Thanks Lucio for the suggestion.
PS: yes, this could be considered a big change (but not an API change), but
as it turns out even temporarily changes R9/R10 in user code is unsafe and
leads to very hard to diagnose problems later, better to disable using R9/R10
when the user first uses it.

This text is added to doc.go:
Explicit argument indexes:
In Printf, Sprintf, and Fprintf, the default behavior is for each
formatting verb to format successive arguments passed in the call.
However, the notation [n] immediately before the verb indicates that the
nth one-indexed argument is to be formatted instead. The same notation
before a '*' for a width or precision selects the argument index holding
the value. After processing a bracketed expression [n], arguments n+1,
n+2, etc. will be processed unless otherwise directed.
For example,
fmt.Sprintf("%[2]d %[1]d\n", 11, 22)
will yield "22, 11", while
fmt.Sprintf("%[3]*[2].*[1]f", 12.0, 2, 6),
equivalent to
fmt.Sprintf("%6.2f", 12.0),
will yield " 12.00". Because an explicit index affects subsequent verbs,
this notation can be used to print the same values multiple times
by resetting the index for the first argument to be repeated:
fmt.Sprintf("%d %d %#[1]x %#x", 16, 17)
will yield "16 17 0x10 0x11".
The notation chosen differs from that in C, but I believe it's easier to read
and to remember (we're indexing the arguments), and compatibility with
C's printf was never a strong goal anyway.
While we're here, change the word "field" to "arg" or "argument" in the
code; it was being misused and was confusing.

Back in the day, before the Go 1.0 release, $GOROOT was mandatory for building from source. Fast forward to now and $GOPATH is mandatory and $GOROOT is optional, and mainly used by those who use the binary distribution in uncommon places.
For example, most novices at least know about `sudo` as they would have used it to install the binary tarball into /usr/local. It is logical they would use the `sudo` hammer to `go get` other Go packages when faced with a permission error talking about the path they just had to use `sudo` on last time.
Even if they had read the documentation and set $GOPATH, go get will not work as expected as `sudo` masks most environment variables.
llucky(~) % ~/go/bin/go env | grep GOPATH
GOPATH="/home/dfc"
lucky(~) % sudo ~/go/bin/go env | grep GOPATH
GOPATH=""
This CL therefore proposes to remove support for using `go get` to download source into $GOROOT.
This CL also proposes an error when GOPATH=$GOROOT, as this is another place where new Go users can get stuck.

This CL adds a flag parser that matches the semantics of Go's

the new flag parser.
Command lines that used to work, like
8c -FVw
6c -Dfoo
5g -I/foo/bar
now need to be split into separate arguments:
8c -F -V -w
6c -D foo
5g -I /foo/bar
The new spacing will work with both old and new tools.
The new parser also allows = for arguments, as in
6c -D=foo
5g -I=/foo/bar
but that syntax will not work with the old tools.
In addition to matching standard Go binary flag parsing,
the new flag parser generates more detailed usage messages
and opens the door to long flag names.
The recently added gc flag -= has been renamed -complete.

The Plan 9 symbol table format defines big-endian symbol values
for portability, but we want to be able to generate an ELF object file
and let the host linker link it, as part of the solution to issue 4069.
The symbol table itself, since it is loaded into memory at run time,
must be filled in by the final host linker, using relocation directives
to set the symbol values. On a little-endian machine, the linker will
only fill in little-endian values during relocation, so we are forced
to use little-endian symbol values.
To preserve most of the original portability of the symbol table
format, we make the table itself say whether it uses big- or
little-endian values. If the table begins with the magic sequence
fe ff ff ff 00 00
then the actual table begins after those six bytes and contains
little-endian symbol values. Otherwise, the table is in the original
format and contains big-endian symbol values. The magic sequence
looks like an "end of table" entry (the fifth byte is zero), so legacy
readers will see a little-endian table as an empty table.
All the gc architectures are little-endian today, so the practical
effect of this CL is to make all the generated tables little-endian,
but if a big-endian system comes along, ld will not generate
the magic sequence, and the various readers will fall back to the
original big-endian interpretation.

- panic calls terminate a function, execute deferred

- deferred functions are executed before a function _returns_
to its caller

No changes to the meaning, just clearer language and more
examples, including illegal rune and string literals.
In particular, "character literal" and "character constant"
are now called "rune literal" and "rune constant" and the
word "character" always refers to the source text, not
program values.

- point out difference between selectors and qualified identifiers
- differentiate between illegal selectors and run-time panics
- use "indirect" as opposed to "dereference" consistently
- add extra links

- receiving from a closed channel returns immediately
- in the ,ok form, the 2nd result is of type bool, not
just boolean (gc and ggcgo agree).
Per dsymonds' suggestion.

The '...' was missing on a call to fmt.Sprintf() which would result in
the slice being printed instead of the correct result.

Another attempt at https://golang.org/cl/5754088.
Before, we only consulted $GOBIN for source code
found in $GOROOT, but that's confusing to explain
and less useful. The new behavior lets users set
GOBIN=$HOME/bin and have all go-compiled binaries
installed there.
Tested a few cases in test.bash.
Ran all.bash with and without $GOBIN and it works.
Even so, I expect it to break the builders,
like it did last time, we can debug from there.
Fixes#3269 (again).
Fixes#3396.
Fixes#3397.

Also explain the situation with recursive String methods more accurately,

This makes h3 and h4 more distinct, and h2 and h3 the same size.
The h2 and h3 styles may be distinguished h2's background styles.
This means that almost all text on the site is either 16px, 20px,
or 24px. (with a smattering of 14px)

I can't find other pages without titles, so this seems reasonable.

doc: convert to use godoc built-in templates
tmpltohtml is gone, to avoid having a second copy of the code.
Instead, godoc -url /doc/go1.html will print the actual HTML
served for that URL. "make" will generate files named go1.rawhtml
etc, which can be fed through tidy.
It can be hard to tell from the codereview diffs, but all the
tmpl files have been renamed to be html files and then
have "Template": true added.
