Sorry for the slow feedback on this. We now have Go support in
Buildroot. For the moment, we only have one package in the tree
(flannel), but Christian Stewart has already submitted three more. And
indeed, the build procedure for each of them look very similar, so a
package infrastructure might very well be useful.

Would you be interested in respining your patch series against the
latest master, so that we can move forward with this topic?

Thanks!

Thomas
