A Long-Overdue Problem Coming for Some in Go 1.23 — Go's compiler has special directives to let you do various things including, in the case of go:linkname, accessing unexported variables/functions from other packages. This has never been a guaranteed, safe feature, but changes to its operation in 1.23 could cause issues for more than a few packages.. (If you want to know why a library might not allow access to certain things by default, Chris covers that here.)
