The Go compiler can work without split stack support. The effect is that you are limited in the number of goroutines you can create, particularly on a 32-bit system. And you are also limited in the depth of recursion and size of local variables you can create. But you can write working Go programs. The objfile patch, however, is not really about Go, although gccgo will use it. It's really about LTO. If it works for LTO, it will work for gccgo. Ian
