单通道和选择语句死锁

Question

I have the following minimal example that bails out after the first command line input due to deadlock:

package main     

import "fmt"     
import "os"     

func main() {     
    channel1 := make(chan string)     

    go func() {     
        var str string     
        for {              
            fmt.Fscanln(os.Stdin, &str)     
            channel1 <- str                
        }                      
    }()      

    for {     
        select {     
        case str := <-channel1:     
            fmt.Printf("Channel1 said: %v
", str)     
        }                                             
    }             
}  

I would have expected this to simply just take user input and echo it over and over again. Also, I did notice that if I add a second channel and a second go routine that it doesn't have any deadlock issues. So why does this deadlock?

Cannot reproduce the problem.

jnml@fsc-r630:~/src/tmp/SO/13015469$ cat main.go 
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "os"
)

func main() {
    channel1 := make(chan string)

    go func() {
        var str string
        for {
            fmt.Fscanln(os.Stdin, &str)
            channel1 <- str
        }
    }()

    for {
        select {
        case str := <-channel1:
            fmt.Printf("Channel1 said: %v
", str)
        }
    }
}

What's your Go version, OS & architecture?
