// For slices, clear sets all elements up to the length of the slice

The size of any C type T is available as C.sizeof_T, as in
C.sizeof_struct_stat.

A C function may be declared in the Go file with a parameter type of
the special name _GoString_. This function may be called with an
ordinary Go string value. The string length, and a pointer to the
string contents, may be accessed by calling the C functions

calls the C xxx in a standard pthread.  The new function translates
its arguments, calls xxx, and translates the return value.

Translation of parameters and the return value follows the type
translation above except that arrays passed as parameters translate
explicitly in Go to pointers to arrays, as they do (implicitly) in C.

Garbage collection is the big problem.  It is fine for the Go world to
