What did you do?

~/mygo/plugintest$ printf 'package main\n\nvar String = "Hello, world!"\n' >plugin.go
~/mygo/plugintest$ go install -buildmode=plugin -x

What did you expect to see?

A shared object named plugintest.so in /home/zephyrtronium/go/pkg/linux_amd64_dynlink/github.com/zephyrtronium/.

What did you see instead?

A shared object named plugintest.a in the same directory.

I confirmed that the plugin loads correctly using the plugin package, it's just named .a instead of .so. The output from go install -buildmode=plugin -x includes mv $WORK/b001/exe/a.out.so /home/zephyrtronium/go/pkg/linux_amd64_dynlink/github.com/zephyrtronium/plugintest.a, versus go build -buildmode=plugin -n having mv $WORK/b001/exe/a.out.so plugintest.so.
