I don't remember why I wasn't comfortable with Go a couple of years
ago, but I think it would be OK as a default language today.  I doubt
it runs on as many platforms as gcj, though I would certainly be happy
to see more portability patches.  In particular, it doesn't currently
run on Windows or Darwin.
