I am not sure exactly what "-buildmode=c-archive" does, but it doesn't sound like it is doing what you need. You need code that is built to be dynamically relocatable, which as the error message suggests is normally accomplished (with a C compiler) by specifying -fPIC. You'll have to find out what is the equivalent incantation for Go; but look for options for building shared libraries, not .a files. > Interestingly, the *build completes successfully when the .a file is > smaller* (around 100 MB). Pure luck I suspect. regards, tom lane
