Hello It seems that this code <https://play.golang.org/p/C5jbcieUS6> doesn't compile :
func main() { var err error err = f() } *prog.go:8: err declared and not used* but this one <https://play.golang.org/p/Y5zc4sLbtE> does : func main() { var err error g := func() { err = f() } g() } Is the function binding regarded as a "use"? Or does escape analysis decide to not check too deep about never-read variables? Whether expected or not, I supposed this compiler behavior won't change, because of the Go1 compatibility promise.
