by rjeczalik:

go tool does not allow for a '$' char in a #cgo comment, which makes passing e.g.
"-Wl,-rpath -Wl,$ORIGIN" to a cgo a bit hard.



What steps will reproduce the problem?

package main

// #include <stdio.h>
// #cgo LDFLAGS: -Wl,-rpath -Wl,$ORIGIN
import "C"

func main() {
 C.printf("ok")
}

What is the expected output?

$ go run test.go 
ok

What do you see instead?

$ go run test.go 
/tmp/test.go: malformed #cgo argument: -Wl,$ORIGIN

Which compiler are you using (5g, 6g, 8g, gccgo)?

6g

Which operating system are you using?

Ubuntu 13.04

Which version are you using?  (run 'go version')

go version devel +52e26bb34741 Sun Aug 04 23:32:40 2013 +0400 linux/amd64
