Hi Sergei,

I definitely think your fix deserves recognition. Without it I would 
certainly have been unable to build 1.8(.1)? this month. While editing 
the recipe is trivial mechanical wise, figuring out what to change was 
not :)

Sorry to hear about your issues; I'm on x86_64 and Linux as well 
though...

Hope you'll be able to work this out!

Thanks for fixing Go 1.8 :)

Best,
Petter
