The two compilers have different aims.

I'm guessing here, but I think that after Go 1 we might see releases of the
Google version every few weeks, mostly with bugfixes and backwards-compatible
API enhancements. Many people will want to use these releases before the new
API features make it in into the slower release cycle of GCC.

Even more guessing: At some point in the distant future (a few years), there
will be a pre-Go 2 version of the Google compiler where they will try out new
language features before implementing it in the GCC version.
