I am saying that this behavior was unexpected. You should probably point out what part of the specs make you expect that behavior. AFAICT, it works exactly as specified[0]: """" For all the cases in the statement, the channel operands of receive operations and the channel and right-hand-side expressions of send statements are evaluated exactly once, in source order, upon entering the "select" statement. """" 'first()' is the right-hand-side of a send statement and the above quoted part of the specs clearly says it _will_ be evaluated. Nowhere the specs say otherwise.
