go4.org/unsafe/assume-no-moving-gc
If your Go package wants to declare that it plays unsafe games that only
work if the Go runtime's garbage collector is not a moving collector, then add:
import _ "go4.org/unsafe/assume-no-moving-gc"
Then your program will explode if that's no longer the case. (Users can override the explosion with a scary sounding environment variable.)
This also gives us a way to find all the really gross unsafe packages.
