I have an updated patch for the reflection functions in gcc 4.9 for ppc64 & ppc64le which allows the recover.go test to pass and the updated version of libgo/go/reflect/all_tests.go to pass once all testcases are enabled for ppc64 & ppc64le.

Based on the discussion we've had on this patch, has the decision changed concerning whether or not this patch might be accepted into the gcc 4.9 branch? If so, I will post the updated patch.

Sorry to be so pedantic, but I'm just trying to clarify that you keep
saying "reflection support," but reflection support is there.  What is
missing is a miniscule rarely used part of the reflect package, namely
support for reflect.MakeFunc, and, it's true, calling reflect.ValueOf,
then Method or MethodByName, then Interface.
