Subject: [PATCH 1/2] Avoid manual memory management in go-lang.c
Date: Thu, 16 Feb 2023 18:00:12 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20230216-submit-go-unique-ptr-v1-1-73dd8065c6a6@tromey.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20230216-submit-go-unique-ptr-v1-0-73dd8065c6a6@tromey.com>

I noticed a couple of spots in go-lang.c that could be improved by
using unique_ptr.
