Running Go App Engine apps locally.

I'm trying to run an App Engine app locally using the development server, as specified in Google's docs. I'm running into a ton of compilation errors due to the go library packaged in the SDK missing system libraries.

Looking at the SDK download page, it says:

Note: The Google App Engine Launcher does not work with Go apps.

So is there no way to launch Go apps running on App Engine locally?

The GAE Go SDK contains and uses a modified version of Go 1.6.2., and the context package was added to the standard lib in Go 1.7. The old API that comes bundled in the SDK uses the appengine.Context context.
