 What did you do for your release at https://lists.mayfirst.org/pipermail
 /guardian-dev/2015-February/004243.html?

 I guess fixing this problem is on the roadmap for Go 1.5:
 https://golang.org/issue/8877.

 One workaround, I think, would be to always use an upstream HTTP
 proxy—then net/http should expect the proxy to resolve the name.
