Subject: cmd/compile/internal/parser: improved syntax error for incorrect if/for/switch header
X-Git-Tag: go1.9beta1~1660
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3c22e5ca271ca4ad17b34d965e6a9baf7b5cf94d;p=gostls13.git

cmd/compile/internal/parser: improved syntax error for incorrect if/for/switch header

Starting the error message with "expecting" rather than "missing"
causes the syntax error mechanism to add additional helpful info
(it recognizes "expecting" but not "missing").

Fixes #17328.
