All, there is a patch to dev-lang/go that was added a while back w/o consulting me [1]. I eventually did review the patch, and I see that it hard codes a path to the sysctl binary on OSx. In my view, prefix or not, we shouldn't be patching software to hard code paths to binaries; we should be fixing PATH instead. Thoughts? William [1] https://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=558368
