Ø Symlinks and the go tools should be avoided.
Was this done intentionally? If so, why? If not, is it a bug which should be
fixed?

I'm sorry to say that that is bad advice. Symlinks and the go tools should be
avoided.

Hi Ian, thanks for the confirmation!
It turns out that the cause of this behavior is that I had followed the
instructions at
https://github.com/karlseguin/the-little-go-book/blob/9f95b4405760fe9d24d4f9b7da93889cc9306f58/en/go.md#getting-started
and
symlinked thus: `$ ln -s ~/code/golang-workspace/src/github.com/foo/proj
~/code/proj`
In a directory structure without the symlink, things work correctly :)
I'll file an issue on the Little Book of Go about this gotcha.

Yes.

What is the value of your GOPATH environment variable?
