alt Hacker NewsSure, I have experienced them, e.g. once in 2006 using IBM's JVM implementation with Websphere.
However it is probably not as problematic due to the way Go allows for Assembly being used directly.
While the JVM and CLR don't allow for direct access to Assembly code, Go does, thus I assume expecting safepoints everywhere is not an option, as any subroutine call can land on code that was manually written.
Go users can only insert assembly wrapped in a function call. That might be safety related, I am not entirely sure.
(Well technically there is a way to inject assembly without the function call overhead. That's what https://pkg.go.dev/runtime/internal/atomic is doing. But you will need to modify the runtime and compiler toolchain for it.)
