Meant for development purposes only, so one can compile binary on a
macos host then start a Docker container or scp the binary to a linux
host easily.

The resulting binary is statically linked and has very subtle
differences. e.g. static binaries use go native network stack that
honor /etc/hosts and /etc/resolve differently from the glibc
implementation. In development environment, I don't expect these to
materially change our experience.
