The path to resolution is known, but the work has not been done.
Milestone
The new "Test execution environment" information in a recent build log (example) shows that
darwin-arm64-11_0-toothrot
is testing Go with darwin versionxnu-7195.41.8~9
, which corresponds to macOS Big Sur 11.0 (e.g., using this release history as one source).https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201222 describes this version as "Preinstalled only on certain Mac models; please update to macOS Big Sur 11.0.1". It might not be possible to update to 11.0.1 today since newer point releases have superseded it, but updating to a newer version such as 11.6.5 should be available and fine.
Doing so should help make the information the builder produces more representative of uses of Go on Big Sur. It may also make a difference on occasional "unexpected stale targets" failures (issue #49692, also recent example), though it's hard to predict.
