Thanks for thinking about the issue! I should have asked for something more explicit, probably something like this: ; go build listconstraintexclusions buildconstraint_1 excludes: file1.go file2.go file3.go buildconstraint_2 excludes: file4.go file5.go No go files left to build. ;
Iiuc the complexity of creating this list is in P. (I understand my original question was different.)
