Description
After encountering and describing this error I realized I could just brew install, but this is still an odd error to have encountered.

# github.com/keybase/client/go/service

Research direction
Reproduce the failure with the reported GO15VENDOREXPERIMENT=1 go get or go install command, then inspect go/service/gregor.go at line 859. Verify the build on OS X Mavericks after addressing the bytes.Reader Reset error; the reported commands should complete without that compiler failure.
