If Go is coming to Native Client, then perhaps it will come to Android, too?

An ARM target has been exiting for years, it works just fine on Android. Unfortunately (?) this doesn't allow creating GUI apps or using the Android APIs. Camlistore[1] is written in Go and uses a Go backend on Android, it just has a Java shim for the GUI.

Native client support for ARM is not yet there.
