No, **there is**  a requirement:

Redistributions in binary form must reproduce the above copyright notice, 
this list of conditions and the following disclaimer in the documentation 
and/or other materials provided with the distribution. 

This requirement does not only apply when you redistribute a (possibly) 
modified version of the Go compiler, but also to the standard library.
So you have to link the Go License in your documentation, when you 
redistribuite a Go program, since **every** Go program implicitly imports 
the runtime package.

But I'm not really sure.
