forth). A Go function called by C code may take C pointers as arguments,
and it may store non-pointer data, C pointers, or Go pointers to pinned
memory through those pointers. It may not store a Go pointer to unpinned
memory in memory pointed to by a C pointer (which again, implies that it
may not store a string, slice, channel, and so forth). A Go function
called by C code may take a Go pointer but it must preserve the property

assignment of regular parameters.
