What could Go wrong with a mutex

Does Go still run defers at function exit rather than scope exit? Changing that would be a big improvement, although I guess they’d have to use a different keyword to avoid breaking compatibility.

At function exit. You can of course always create an anonymous function to emulate a block like:

  func() {
    defer something()
    ...
  }()

This basically has the same behavior as having a block there, but with the defer being called at the exit of that functions body.
