The trick with Oberon, which Go also uses, is to have a special module
reckognised by the compiler with primitives to do the low tricks C
offers. Additionaly any function/method without body can be
implemented in Assembly. This is nothing new, Modula-2 already worked
like this.
If a language has to resort to such "outside-of-the-language" tricks
like that to do system software, then it's just simply not a systems
language.
How is this different from ANSI/ISO C, which is considered a systems
programming language?
