From what I've read, Go's runtime just isn't compatible with the kind fault-tolerance that Erlang provides (nor was it meant to). It lacks process monitoring, lacks process isolation, has a pause-the-world garbage collector, etc.
Not a knock against Go, just pointing out that the design goals were different.
