The use of -fgo-prefix with gccgo can be confusing.  This patch adds an
error message to catch one case where it is required: when you import a
package which uses the same package name and -fgo-prefix option as the
package currently being compiled.  This helps clarify errors messages
which are otherwise confusing.  This addresses issue 1351 in the Go
issue tracker.  Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on
x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.  Committed to mainline.
