I think the GC will not try to dereference a pointer that is known to point outside of the Go runtime heap. If I'm wrong then it will panic. I suggest to hide the potentially inaccessible unsafe.Pointer from being considered by the GC at all by making it an uintptr instead. -- -j -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
