This patch to the Go frontend generates a better error for an unexpected digit. A digit character is not invalid in general, but it's not permitted at the start of an identifier. Report a better error message. The test case is issue11359.go in the source repo. Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu. Committed to mainline.
