He and Rob Pike have written a few books together, that's likely the main connection.
I follow the Go community fairly closely and hadn't heard of Kernighan in connection with Go, but he may also not be advertising his use of it.
- f2f 12y agokernighan also wrote the tutorial on the Limbo programming language: http://doc.cat-v.org/inferno/4th_edition/limbo_language/descent http://doc.cat-v.org/inferno/4th_edition/limbo_language/desc... he's obviously good at it, and the perspective of someone not involved with the creation of the language is a bonus.
