I am surprised that I didn't think about this till now but Go has simple enough syntax to where Lisp could be translated into Go code, and I wonder why Haxe doesn't translate into Go with that same thought. Go definitely has plenty of libraries at it's disposal standard library wise.

If this has macros it gives people "generic" programming in Go at the cost of having to write it all in a lisp dialect. I wouldn't personally mind it but some might :-p

"Macros are supported via Racket's macro system define-syntax, define-syntax-rule and defmacro."

So yes. :-)
