Subject: cmd/compile/internal/syntax: remove need for missing_statement (fixed TODO)
X-Git-Tag: go1.9beta1~975
X-Git-Url: http://www.git.cypherpunks.su/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=783f166e659558414d846d16bbe65e6fe9c7099b;p=gostls13.git

cmd/compile/internal/syntax: remove need for missing_statement (fixed TODO)

Now that we have consistent use of xOrNil parse methods, we don't
need a special missing_statement singleton to distinguish between
missing actually statements and other errors (which have returned
nil before).

For #19663.
