A MySQL UDF written in Go

I was wondering if it is possible to write a MySQL User Defined Function (UDF) in Go.  
So I tried and I got a very basic UDF working.

mysql> SELECT udf_fileexists_go("/etc/hosts");
+---------------------------------+
| udf_fileexists_go("/etc/hosts") |
+---------------------------------+
|                               1 |
+---------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

mysql> SELECT udf_fileexists_go("/nonexistend");
+-----------------------------------+
| udf_fileexists_go("/nonexistend") |
+-----------------------------------+
|                                 0 |
+-----------------------------------+
1 row in set (0.00 sec)

This is nowhere near production quality, so be careful.
