Have you investigated the build failures to have such strong claim?

I'm finishing going through distro wide rebuild(all ~500 packages) and roughly 74 packages are failing to build. Nearly all build failures are caused by errors(inefficiencies) in the packages code or stale/inactive packagers, with no direct  relation to the go compiler itself. I see less than 1% of packages that look like candidates for golang bugs.

I will post results when I finish(in ~1-2 days).
