Go has already been ported by Taru, a fact noted in the thread on
golang-nuts where you announced your intention to try to port Go a
little while ago. Is it so hard as that to see how she did
it?

Actually, I asked her and she's happy for you to email her with

Sorry if I sound a bit snippy. I have struggled with various compiles
myself and reached the conclusion that any such struggling is pointless
when there's any other way, so it's a bit painful to watch you
struggling to duplicate work already done.
