|  What changed behavior?  NetBSD?  Go?  GCC?

Gcc 4.8 stopped putting notes at a % 4 address. The note generating code
in go was buggy and created notes with inconsistent size in that case.
Also the note generating code in go was using voodoo to figure out the note
size (getting it right, but using the wrong calculation).
The NetBSD kernel was changed recently to be pickier about notes than before.
