This works because of the following sed-fu in lang/go/Makefile:

post-install:
        @${CAT} ${PKGMESSAGE} | ${SED}          \
                -e "s|%%PREFIX%%|${PREFIX}|g"   \
                -e "s|%%ARCH%%|${GOARCH}|g"     \
                -e "s|%%GOOBJ%%|${GOOBJ}|g"

It's probably preferable for lang/go to utilize SUB_FILES and
SUB_LIST instead of using ${SED} to manually expand VAR=VALUE pairs in
post-install.  For context, see:
