What does 'go version' print?

go version go1.2.1 darwin/386

What happened?

1. run `go test -outputpath /tmp -c src/path/to/file_test.go`
2. observe to.test get created in src/path/to/
3. wish that -outputpath or -o  could be used to redirect to.test to some other location

What should have happened instead?

a) to.test is placed in a directory specified using -outputpath, -o, or some other flag
b) a variant of `-c` is available which performs the same function but does not actually
generate output in the testDir

Please provide any additional information below.

In developing go-plus (https://atom.io/packages/go-plus /
https://github.com/joefitzgerald/go-plus), I use `go build` and `go test` to provide
syntax checking functionality to the end user. I would like to suppress the test output
while still being able to use `go test` without actually running the tests.
