What steps will reproduce the problem?
If possible, include a link to a program on play.golang.org.
1. Install a library using gccgo as the compiler, e.g. go install -compiler gccgo
launchpad.net/gnuflag
2. Run go clean -i launchpad.net/gnuflag

What is the expected output?

$GOPATH/pkg/gccgo_$GOOS_$GOARCH/launchpad.net/libgnuflag.a should have been deleted.

What do you see instead?

$GOPATH/pkg/gccgo_$GOOS_$GOARCH/launchpad.net/libgnuflag.a has not been deleted.

Which compiler are you using (5g, 6g, 8g, gccgo)?

gccgo

Which operating system are you using?

Ubuntu Trusty

Which version are you using?  (run 'go version')

go version devel +7abe32ccffb1 Wed Jan 22 15:55:56 2014 -0800 linux/amd64

Please provide any additional information below.

If you build the go tool with gccgo, go clean does remove the artefact so it's possible
that instead of go clean removing gccgo built things by default, go clean should take a
-compiler gccgo flag like build, install etc to know where to look.

Comment 3:

clean -i is working as intended. It removes what go install would create, not everything
every possible go install would create. It doesn't remove things for other architectures
or operating systems and should also not remove things for other compilers.
However, clean should accept -compiler so that you can remove what go install -compiler
installs.

Labels changed: added release-none, removed release-go1.3.
