plans for golang packages in z

[Frank Heimes]

Hi Michael,
I think this is a great idea - because I heard from IBM that Go 1.7
contains several s390x patches that make the z support sound,
and that kubernetes will be re-based to golang 1.7 at some point in time,
which would allow to build it for s390x without any further adjustment.

Bye, Frank
