Ugh, so it turns out Ubuntu Xenial comes with go 1.6 which is pretty much
the version we use on all of our CI builds for testing (like cross test).
For further details on the issue see:

Now I have to think some more about it. :|
> Golang: do something with context.Context
> -----------------------------------------
>
> Key: THRIFT-4448
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/THRIFT-4448
> Project: Thrift
> Issue Type: Task
> Components: Go - Library
> Affects Versions: 0.11.0
> Reporter: John Boiles
>
> PR Here: https://github.com/apache/thrift/pull/1459
> This patch wires through {{context.Context}} such that it can be used in in
> {{http.Request}}'s {{WithContext}} method. This allows Thrift HTTP requests
> to canceled or timed out via the context.
> This patch breaks support for go<1.7 so it's not ready to ship, but I'm
> hoping to get some direction on this. When does Thrift expect to drop support
> of go1.7? It looks like the current solution is to duplicate files that need
> to use {{golang.org/x/net/context}} and add a {{// +build !go1.7}} but
> duplication seems unsustainable as the {{context}} package is imported more
> places.
> Go 1.7 was released 15 August 2016. Given Golang has had significant
> performance improvements in most dot releases, I suspect most production
> services stay reasonably up to date. Here at Periscope/Twitter we're on
> go1.9.1, and we're a fairly large organization.
