There was a bug in it not building 2.18. Should be fixed.

I broke above, sorry.


I still want to make more changes in libgo. Some of the code seems
copy/pasted between the various locators/drivers/etc. I want that
cleaner some day.

My current goal is to find out why the figures aren't included anymore
(I caused it, just can't find the bug). After that, find out why libgo
often also couldn't find the figures.
