If all fails, you can try out what worked for me some= time ago:

version go-93dc7f0e302b compiles out-of the box.
Prere= quisites:
kernel post-Aug2012
8* suite post-March2012
VERSION file= is needed if hg is not installed.
Mercurial is only needed to generate the top-level VERSION file.
You can= work around this by creating the file yourself after
pulling the code f= rom the repository.
Either create a fake VERSION file
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2= =A0 echo fake >VERSION
or one that matches what the dist tool would have printed. With sh:
=C2= =A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 v=3D`hg log -r tip --template '+{node|short} {date|date= }'`
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 echo devel $v >VERSION
Afterwards you c= an run tar to generate an archive that can
be moved to any system and built without Mercurial.
Cd to go/src and run= :
=C2=A0=C2=A0=C2=A0 make.rc

I've been caught up in a lot of different things and haven't = been able
to focus on Go for Plan 9, but I'll try to re-focus in the next few
days.

I'll try out the 1.1 release as soon as I get a chance and report back<= br> here with the outcome.
