i tried to build gcc 4.7.2 with go support (--enable-languages=c,c++,go)
and that fails due to a lack of set/getcontext().
(see pkg/gcc472 in sabotage)

according to rich, adding that to musl requires a non-trivial amount of 
arch specific asm.

the go runtime in the gcc tree should be fixed to have a fallback when 
this functionality is missing (if possible),
so it maybe be needed to ask on the go mailing list.
