I did this by mistake (hit enter too early) and then noted the kinda weird error message:

bradfitz@go:~/go/src$ go install
can't load package: package std: unknown import path "std": cannot find module providing package std
bradfitz@go:~/go/src$ go install std
bradfitz@go:~/go/src$ echo $?
0

I guess it's correct, as "std" is some alias rather than a package, but maybe it can be made to just work, or have a more helpful error.

Low priority.
