Go Playground

What did you do?

See https://play.golang.org/p/beWgN_LRyJ -- it fails to compile with internal compiler error: large ONEW with EscNone: new(). The code itself doesn't make a lot of sense, building a buffer and not using it, but it should still compile.

What did you expect to see?

The program should run on the Go Playground.

What did you see instead?

The program fails to compile with internal compiler error: large ONEW with EscNone: new()
