+  This change aligns the <code>gc</code> toolchain to match
+  the <code>gccgo</code> toolchain, which already elided such wrappers
+  from stack traces.

+  Clients of these APIs might need to adjust for the missing

   The compiler now accepts a <code>-lang</code> flag to set the Go language
   version to use. For example, <code>-lang=go1.8</code> causes the compiler to
