it's more then stupid.

1) __hardcoded__ glibc loader (!!!)

https://code.google.com/p/go/source/browse/src/cmd/6l/asm.c
https://code.google.com/p/go/source/browse/src/cmd/8l/asm.c

you can run go (force musl libc) with command:

/lib/libc.so /bin/go (...)

2) hardcoded bison (instead ${YACC}):

https://code.google.com/p/go/source/browse/src/cmd/gc/Makefile

3) hardcoded bash in build scripts (instead portable sh).

4) C based 'build script' instead Makefile.

btw. Go (Google) works with musl (sabotage).

Daniel
