Hi all,
I've been getting interested in programming in Go recently and it's my
understanding that at some point in time, Plan 9 was a supported
environment in which one could bootstrap and use Go?
I've tried a few different versions; 1.2.2, 1.4.2, 1.5.2, just following
the directions that I found on a blog somewhere, i.e:
tar xf go 1.4.2.tar
cd go-go1.4.2/src
./all.rc
But it fails almost immediately trying to bootstrap Go:
cpu% ./all.rc
# Building C bootstrap tool.
cmd/dist
# Building compilers and Go bootstrap tool for host, plan9/386.
lib9

I get a fair number of these errors for various header files, then some
more worrisome output:

At that point the build fails and I drop back to the rc prompt.
While the example I cite above is for version 1.4.2, I believe the failure
mode is pretty much the same for both earlier and later versions that I've
tried to build.
Is my Plan 9 installation "too old"? I'm using pretty bog-standard Fourth
Edition on this particular instance; 9atom doesn't seem to get along with
VMware ESXi (at least, not last time I checked).
Any help greatly appreciated! I'd love to be able to use Go within Plan 9.
Thanks,
Sean
