I've installed 32 and 64 bit versions of several compilers for the new
Go language from Google on Athena.

The gccgo compiler is in the gccgo locker; to access it, type:

add gccgo

followed by an appropriate invocation; details and pointers to
documentation are at http://web.mit.edu/gccgo/README.athena 
See also the MISCELLANEOUS: section of
http://web.mit.edu/gccgo_v4.50/README.athena for some additional
information about the current release.

The gc compilers (6g, 8g) are in the ggo locker. To access those:

add ggo

followed by an appropriate invocation; see
http://web.mit.edu/ggo/README.athena for details and documentation.

Go is under rapid development and is likely to be somewhat buggy at this
stage.

                       Enjoy,

                                Alex
