Description

Go version

This affects Go 1.23.x only. The test passes on Go 1.24.x and at tip.

Output of go env in your module/workspace:

GOOS='darwin'
GOARCH='arm64'

What did you do?

Looked at the failing builds on the build dashboard, e.g., https://ci.chromium.org/b/8713515151815260705, and tried to run the the test locally on darwin/arm64. It reproduced the failure.

Note that the darwin-arm64-longtest builder where this reproduces was added recently in #73488. The same test passes on darwin-amd64-longtest builders (e.g., https://ci.chromium.org/ui/p/golang/builders/ci/go1.23-darwin-amd64-longtest/b8713515151301513937/test-results?q=cmd%2Fgo.TestScript%2Fbuild_trimpath_cgo).

What did you see happen?

Test fails with:

script_test.go:159: FAIL: testdata/script/build_trimpath_cgo.txt:13: go run ./list-dwarf hello.exe: exit status 1

What did you expect to see?

Passing test on Go 1.23 release branch, or skipped test if the failure is understood and it's better to skip.

The same test was also failing for @matloob in #70669 and was fixed in Go 1.24, but this appears to be a different issue in the same test.

CC @golang/command-line, @thanm. (Also FYI @mknyszek.)
