I think host-go always fails on mips64, due to:

tmp/go-link-094754572/go.o: in function `internal/cpu.Initialize':
/srv/storage/autobuild/run/instance-3/output-1/host/lib/go/src/internal/cpu/cpu.go:137:(.text+0x14):
relocation R_MIPS_26 against `a local symbol' cannot be used when
making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC

Not familiar with mips - is this something with cflags? Need -fPIC
here for position-independent code conditional on mips?

Best,
Christian Stewart

It's difficult to really say as there's not much output from how
host-go is building the target libraries. However, everything that goes
into a shared library indeed needs to be built with -fPIC, and MIPS is
particularly picky about this.
