You'll need to ask someone familiar with go. One of the problems with go ports is there is no mechanism to trigger updates when the compiler itself is updated (which will usually result in the built packages changing). We don't really want a run dependency on the compiler but there's no other way to say "update this package when the compiler is updated" as there's no library dependency (the usual trigger for this..)
