As far as I understand, we can't use go 1.5.2 as the bootstrap
compiler, because since 1.5.x, Go is written in Go. I guess we will
have to backport the patch.

Christian, Geoff, do you know if the Go community intends to maintain
Go 1.4.x for the foreseeable future, so that we can still officially
rely on it as a bootstrap Go compiler?

Thanks!

Thomas
