Thanks for the insight. I fully support the "build from the HEAD philosophy" for the code I completely control. Which is quite different from building stuff from 3rd party HEAD. I assume Google does not build it's kernels from kernel.org HEAD.

Looks like Google should not advertize Go as general purpose language for everyone to use? Especially the tone of Go related postings here on HN is that everyone should replace C, PHP, Python, Java, JavaScript, etc. with Go because it's better, faster, more scalable on server.
