All valid concerns. I agree.

What I meant is go >14 is written in go and at some point it will stop
compiling with go14 as well.

Actually there is the same problem with linux package. There is a whole 
bunch

And btw, if/once the tests are fixed, I am sure the boot images for BSDS 
will be
accepted upstream, so that there will be no need in separate distfiles.
