[Bug 1532020] [NEW] fails to build with PIE enabled by default

[Michael Hudson-Doyle]

Public bug reported:

If you build go on a system with PIE enabled by default (currently only
xenial/s390x) the build fails because go invokes gcc with -Wl,-r and ld
complains about mixing -r and -pie. The fix is to pass -no-pie as well,
but aggravatingly this flag is only supported on xenial: we can't just
patch go to always pass it. This could be fixed in a xenial-only distro
patch but I'd much rather fix it upstream so that people can just
install go from source -- but I don't see how to do that.
