  The most likely cause is in the mysql driver. Go provides an interface for drivers to implement, similar to how JDBC does in Java.

    Just for the reference: It was not the drivers fault but an bug in the database/sql package, which was fixed in https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=45c12efb46 https://code.google.com/p/go/source/detail?r=45c12efb46

      Thanks for posting the follow up here, Julien. I'm glad this has been fixed. We look forward to the Round 4 numbers with Go fixed up.
