The error message is one line above from the paste above:
go build golang.org/x/text/unicode/norm: /usr/bin/mips-linux-gnu-gccgo-7:
waitid: bad address
…and this points to #867358, which seems to be a kernel bug affecting Go
packages. It's apparently fixed in 4.13 and queued up for (but not yet
in) stretch. I've known of this FTBFS and been tracking this bug for a
while, it's been moving slowly :/
Once that fix reaches stretch and runs in the buildds, I'll ask for a
give-back. We can keep this bug open until then.
