They are broken and hard to make work.

They have never worked: if you import "/tmp/x"
from "/home/rsc/p.c" then the compiler rewrites
this into import "/home/rsc/tmp/x", which is
clearly wrong.

Also we just disallowed the : character in import
paths, so import "c:/foo" is already not allowed.

Finally, in order to support absolute paths well in
a build tool we'd have to provide a mechanism to
instruct the compiler to resolve absolute imports
by looking in some other tree (where the binaries live)
and provide a mapping from absolute path to location
in that tree.  This CL avoids adding that complexity.

This is not part of the language spec (and should not be),
so no spec change is needed.

If we need to make them work later, we can.

This CL mostly deletes code.

Using existing position information is
just as good to determine if a new section
is needed; no need to track exact multi-
line information. Eliminates the need to
carry around a multiLine parameter with
practically every function.

Applied gofmt -w src misc resulting in only
a minor change to godoc.go. In return, a couple
of test cases are now formatted better.

Not Go1-required, but nice-to-have as it will
simplify fixes going forward.

with anchor foo, such as <h1 id="foo">.

(A more extensive change would be to use class
selectors for styling. Perhaps this is better, since id:s

http://www.w3.org/TR/CSS2/selector.html#id-selectors)

Work around profiling kernel bug with signal masks.

but I think we can ignore that one and let people
upgrade to Lion.

Add new trivial tools addr2line and objdump to take
the place of the GNU tools of the same name, since
those are not installed on OS X.

Adapt pprof to invoke 'go tool addr2line' and
'go tool objdump' if the system tools do not exist.

        If stdout and stderr are indeed the same file (not a tty), which is
