the process is probably a lot easier with the right cpu type. i think it is something like:

for each architecture (arm, 386), cpu into a machine with that architecture and:

for (i in arm 386) {

GOARCH=$i GOBIN=/$cputype/bin ./all.rc

}

for Sheeva/Guru targets, a GOARM=5 is also needed for arm targets.

still, not as bad as what is required for other OS:

Can't go be cross-built? Having multiple cross compilers work
right is one of the best things about plan9's userland.
