I don't know if there are relevant open bugs for this. I didn't see any on a quick
glance.
This issue is for tracking work toward being able to call Go from C programs (perhaps
linked into the program already, perhaps as a dynload .so file).

Elias Naur has done some good work getting the raw technical details of things like
large-model, position-independent code working.

The biggest step that remains is defining what it means to enter a Go program. Do we use
the usual 'run main.init+main.main' that we use for standalone binaries? Do we use
something else? Is os.Args defined? And so on.

I expect this to happen after Go 1.1.

https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!topic/golang-nuts/zmjXkGrEx6Q is the
golang-nuts thread for my updated proposal. It also includes links to two CLs with
updated implementation for linux/amd64.
