Hanspeter, it seems like your reason for the limits would allow 1.16.6 to be suitable for 12.x also. But I don't have a 12.x sandbox to test it. Unfortunately the distribution tag doesn't accept wildcards, so once there is any restriction, all allowed dists need to be enumerated explicitly.

I've pushed a blind change allowing go on macOS 12. Hopefully it builds, 
since the restriction on `_clock_gettime` shouldn't apply here.
