+The <a href="/cmd/cgo/"><code>cmd/cgo</code></a> command,
+which processes <code>import "C"</code> declarations in Go packages,
+has corrected a serious bug that may cause some packages to stop compiling.
+Previously, all pointers to incomplete struct types translated to the Go type <code>*[0]byte</code>,
+with the effect that the Go compiler could not diagnose passing one kind of struct pointer
+to a function expecting another.
+Go 1.3 corrects this mistake by translating each different
+incomplete struct to a different named type.
+However, some Go code took advantage of this bug to pass (for example) a <code>*C.FILE</code>
+from one package to another.
+This is not legal and no longer works: in general Go packages
+should avoid exposing C types and names in their APIs.
