This is a little old, surely? That's 15 years ago; not even an update to whether they've changed since?

In fact, you should be glad that "go fmt" exposed the fact you were relying on something that you should not have. Better to find a bug sooner rather than later, and relying on implementation details of your particular language implementation is a bug.
You don't say you're not money oriented in a job posting unless you intend to not pay a competitive salary for the skills you're asking for and the workload you intend.

It guarantees there isn't some weirdness about a developer's workstation where it builds right there and not anywhere else.
