Is this going to be tricky for distributions or will they just have to keep a 1.4 version of Go around just to build modern versions of Go?

It should be pretty easy for distributions, since they'll already have packaged versions of Go 1.4.

Why? When you have built version 1.5 once using version 1.4, you can build 1.5 (or any future version that is source compatible) with 1.5.
