Are you trying to figure out why this happens, or do you just want a 
self-signed certificate that works with Go?  

Assuming that you want to generate a working certificate, I did some work 
in this area a few weeks ago and encountered problems..  I found some 
instructions via Google for creating a self signed certificate.  It didn't 
work with Go, although the error I got was different from the one you got.  
I then found a Go utility that generated a certificate that works.

I've written a version of the gRPC hello world example that uses a secure 
connection using this certificate: https://github.com/goblimey/grpc.  
There's a comment in my code:

    // To make the connection work you need a self-signed certificate and a
    // matching private key.  Create these using lc-tlscert:
    //
    //    go get github.com/driskell/log-courier
    //    go install github.com/driskell/log-courier/lc-tlscert
    //    lc-tlscert
    //    (Give your server name as the common name)
    //
    // The common name must match the server name that the client will use 
to
    // connect.  If the client and server are on the same machine you can 
use
    // "localhost".


If you are trying to figure out the cause of the problem, then a working 
example might help with that too.

Simon
