This change causes Print et al. to catch panics generated by calls to String, GoString, and Format. The panic is formatted into the output stream as an error, but the program continues. As a special case, if the argument was a nil pointer, the result is just "<nil>", because that's almost certainly enough information and handles the very common case of String methods that don't guard against nil. Scan does not want this change. Input must work; output can be for debugging and it's nice to get output even when you make a mistake.
