+PLEASE ACCEPT MY APPOLOGIES FOR DOING THIS.
+I DID THIS TO MAKE OLD VERSIONS OF GO WORK.
+
+If you are reading this, I'm sorry.
+
+This probably won't work because of src/runtime/coro.go
+But, it might fucking limp along and maybe fucking compile
+enough of some sort of monster that'll work enough to
+get out of some mess and help find and build golang 1.24
+
+GO 1.24 added 'iter' and it is awesome. I want to use
+it and I've converted autogenpb to use it in the auto
+generated Sort() and Gui() functions.
+
+The problem is I have so many systems and os's to support
+that I can't be sure that I can even get version 1.24 installed
+which means I can't even compile the tooling I need
+to figure out what is going on.
+
+This is because there are so many embedded riscv half ass, broken,
+or poorly configured enviornments that there are no known things.
+Then there are all the hardware design enviornments that are
+complicated. (skywater, tiny tapeout, efabless, etc devs)
+
+It's probably going to take me all year to convert everything
+and even know if I can get version 1.24 to work everywhere.
+
+This package is more difficult than it should be because
+I couldn't use:
+
+ internal/race
+ internal/abi
+ internal/goarch
+
+I would vote against having anything in the compiler marked
+as internal/ other than an example of how that feature
+works for the developers that want it. It is NOT a feature
+the compiler itself should use. I would suggest making
+
+ /internal/example
+
+This package would be better as golang.org/iter but I don't
+know who to ask about doing that.
