# A simple script to compare differences between
# assembly listings for packages built with different
# compiler flags. It is useful to inspect the impact
# of a compiler change across all std lib packages.
#
# The script builds the std library (make.bash) once
# with FLAGS1 and once with FLAGS2 and compares the
# "go build <pkg>" assembly output for each package
# and lists the packages with differences.
#
# For packages with differences it leaves files named
# old.txt and new.txt.

FLAGS1="-newexport=0"
FLAGS2="-newexport=1"
