The Go spec says that builtin functions may not be referenced other
than being called.  This patch from Chris Manghane implements that
restriction in the Go frontend.  This fixes
https://golang.org/issue/11570 .  Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.  Committed to mainline.
