    map1["a"] = 1
    map1["b"] = 2
    
    for i,j,k := range map1{
    	map2[k] = j
    } 	
}

Thanks for reporting this. It triggers an internal compiler error on go1.17.5, but tip correctly gives an error:

invalid AST: invalid lhs in range clause

Since the program is invalid, this may not qualify for a fix in a 1.17 minor release.

I agree with @ALTree , I don't think there's anything to fix here.

The error message here should be better: an "invalid AST" error is typically expected for ASTs that are created "manually" (not by the parser) and are incorrect.

I'm going to re-open this as a reminder to fix error message.
