Whne I looked at Go - maybe 2 years ago, I could not see why
plan9 would not adopt go's 8c/8l and libbio.

obviously others disagree as they have not been back-ported,
but why not? - I'am not trolling, genuine question.

For me, at the time, go's ability to produce (limited) windows 32bit
executables seemed a huge plus - I use windows less these days but it
would still be handy on ocasion.
