+ On macOS on 64-bit x86 architecture (the <code>darwin/amd64</code> port),
+ the Go toolchain now generates position-independent executables (PIE) by default.
+ Non-PIE binaries can be generated by specifying the <code>-buildmode=exe</code>
+ build flag.
+ On 64-bit ARM-based macOS (the <code>darwin/arm64</code> port),
+ the Go toolchain already generates PIE by default.
