Comment 1:

I am not able to reproduce the issue
lucky(~/src) % cat truncate.go 
package main
import "fmt"
import "os"
func main() {
        fmt.Println(os.Truncate("/yolo", 0))
}
# linux
lucky(~/src) % go run truncate.go
truncate /yolo: no such file or directory
# osx mountain lion
odessa(~/src) % go run truncate.go 
truncate /yolo: no such file or directory
Can you please update to Go 1.2 and try again, this issue may have already been fixed.

Comment 3 by abel@rewardstyle.com:

In walking back through this to see why it isn't reproducible, I found that the file
path was being incorrectly parsed (i.e. the ile= was coming from inside the program). My
apologies for that.
Cheers,
Abel
