thanks again.
FWIW seems to me this might have some interesting effects, otherwise
unobtainable, given the different 'clones' still all implement the same
interface.

When using gccgo, yes, and yes.

presumably the go runtime is compiled with gccgo? so would that mean there
are possibly cloned functions in it?
and
i can see that gcc can clone for know value (constant) parameters, but
can't see any other techniques, su

i thought i remembered, a few releases back, that the go compiler started
doing wider ranging analysis that allowed it to optimise and do some low
level dead code elimination?
if so, wouldn't that mean that any extra blank-return 'clones' would
potentially be able to be compiled with more code

wouldn't the compiler be able to use the fact that a return value is known
not to be being used in a particular call, somewhere one or more of the
returned values are assigned to a blank, to be able to generate faster code
for that call?
or is it already being done? because, it seems to me, kno
