As far as I know this is only true for code written in Go. As soon as you try using C libraries you're going to have a non-trivial time statically linking everything. Isn't that the case?

No, only if by C you mean code compiled with gcc and linked against GNU libc.

There are other C compilers to choose from, with libc implementations that properly support static linking.
