Looking at the compile -S output, it looks like we're not emitting a TEXT symbol for struct { main.T }.m2. Reclassifying as a cmd/compile bug.

Bumping to Go 1.11. This is a long-standing issue that is only now technically an issue because we relaxed the Go spec in #9060.

This is breaking the noopt builder, though. We should probably do something for that in 1.10.

Change https://golang.org/cl/81775 mentions this issue: test: disable broken test for 1.10

@randall77 @mdempsky Is there anything else to do this on this issue for 1.10?

@ianlancetaylor Oops, no.

Change https://golang.org/cl/105044 mentions this issue: cmd/compile: fix method expressions with anonymous receivers

Just for the record, one of the interesting things about this issue is the particular repro case here only affects go run and the Go playground (presumably because it uses go run). It does not affect go build.

The difference is that go run compiles with -dwarf=false. Normally, we only produce type descriptors for package-scope declared types, and any other types as they're needed (e.g., types that are allocated on the heap). In the test case, struct { T } only appears on the stack, so it doesn't need a runtime type descriptor. But enabling DWARF means we write out DWARF descriptors of all named stack variables, and DWARF descriptors cross-reference the underlying Go type descriptor.
