The Go compiler in 2007 was written in C because it was an adaptation of the Plan 9 C compiler. That was done because it was the expedient choice at the time, especially while the language was still being designed and would change quite a lot. Nowadays the language is stable, and we have existing Go compilers, so we can reasonably bootstrap a Go compiler written in Go. |
