Isn't go known to have issues on BSD anyway though ? I have seen 
complaints of random crashes running go under BSD systems - and 
preseumably the go compiler itself is written in go, so those issues 
might surface when compiling.

Not that I'm aware of.  I'm not a heavy go user on FreeBSD, but I
don't
recall any unexpected go crashes and I haven't seen  problems building
go on my older AMD machines.
