Research direction

Start with the linked GitHub Actions job and reproduce the failure around ./make.bash. Read the log showing bootstrap Go 1.22.6 and the requirement for Go 1.24.6, then trace the workflow or infrastructure configuration that selects the Go version. Done means the affected build completes successfully with a documented cause.
