Probably a little off topic, but here goes.  Excuse my ignorance
regarding terminology...

In the GO toolchain, I note that a new entry has been added: GLOBL.
It replaces TEXT, which has been relegated to a somewhat more
restricted role, the difference being in the use of "imm" and "imm2".
Does anyone want to tell me the rationale for this change?  I endorse
introducing more careful syntax scanning, unfortunately this fix is
incompatible with current Plan 9 native sources.
