% cat a.go
package main

func main() {
        x, ok := missing()
        if !ok {
                x = ""
        }
        print(x)
}

% go build a.go
./a.go:4: undefined: missing

% ssadump a.go
a.go:4:11: undeclared name: missing
a.go:4:11: undeclared name: missing
a.go:4:11: assignment count mismatch (2 vs 1)
a.go:5:6: invalid operation: operator ! not defined for ok (variable with invalid type)

There is a cascade of errors arising from a single mistake: that 'missing' is undefined
or mis-spelled.  Given that missing, x, and ok have type 'invalid', as witnessed by the
final error, errors #2-#4 should be suppressed.
