It's not just about map ordering issues.  It's about complete
compatibility with GCC Go.  For example, there are issues with test
doubles that have had to be worked around in the past.

When a GCC Go incompatibility is landed, we sometimes spend days with
an unreleasable Juju before it gets fixed.  It has been 3 days since
master was releasable.  Even though GCC Go is slow, it's worth it to
avoid three days of being unreleasable.
