 Thanks for the info.  But it does not make sense to me that the build
 would succeed the second time (after I restarted it).


 > The sources say to try installing either libc6-dev-i386 or gcc-multilib.
 What does `apt-get build-dep golang` say inside the VM? It could be that
 we just need to add a new dependency in the descriptor.

 I had to add some deb-src lines to /etc/apt/sources.list in order to
 successfully run the 'apt-get build-dep golang' command.  The output
 includes:
 {{{
 The following NEW packages will be installed:
   bison bsdmainutils debhelper dh-apparmor ed gettext groff-base html2text
   intltool-debian libbison-dev man-db po-debconf
 }}}

 One more thing: deleting pluggable-transports-win32-gbuilt.zip and re-
 running the build does not reproduce the failure.  Maybe the failure only
 happens rarely; I will try a few more times.
