Thanks, and yeah.   As chance would have it, the problem resolved itself
in this mornings run, but we should take the patch anyway.

A couple of weeks ago, they did strip out one of the versions of Go, but
it wasn't the version of Go we were trying to use.  But in hindsight,
that doesn't mean that the metadata was kept properly up to date.
