TestScript sets the GOEXPERIMENT environment variable to the value of
buildcfg.GOEXPERIMENT() with the intent that tests can use this to
inspect the value of buildcfg.GOEXPERIMENT. This has the unfortunate
side-effect of also affecting the experiments enabled for all builds
done by TestScript. For the most part this is harmless, but
GOEXPERIMENT can be GOOS/GOARCH-sensitive, so if a test changes GOOS
or GOARCH, it will continue to use the GOEXPERIMENT from the host
GOOS/GOARCH rather than what makes sense (or is even allowed) in the
test's GOOS/GOARCH. In fact, prior to CL 307819, TestScript set
GOEXPSTRING instead of GOEXPERIMENT because it previously captured
objabi.Expstring(), so the captured value didn't affect the build.
There's only one experiment that actually uses TestScript's
GOEXPERIMENT and there's a much better way to write that test now such
that it doesn't need to read GOEXPERIMENT at all. Hence, this CL
rewrites this test and drops GOEXPERIMENT from TestScript.
This should fix the *-regabi builders.
