Go 1.10 Linker Flags

This is a tiny example using Go 1.10's scoped linker flags. Run it like so:

go get github.com/akshayjshah/golink
cd $GOPATH/src/github.com/akshayjshah/golink
sh demo.sh

Setting linker flags with -ldflags=all="<flags>" works, but unnecessarily forces a rebuild of all packages. I'm having trouble scoping the -ldflags argument to the correct package. Any ideas?

Solved!

This is related to https://github.com/golang/go/issues/24456, which tracks a regression in the Go tool - as of 1.10.0, it treats go build github.com/foo/bar/./ and go build github.com/foo/bar differently. The latter fixes the issue above.
