What went wrong

Did not show the go vet error/diagnostic report (go lint report was shown regard missing comments )

Reproducing the bug

1. A very simple go program

package main
  
  import (
          "fmt"
  )
  
type A struct {    // should be some warning here
          a int
          b string
  }
  
  func main() {
          arr := make([]a, 5)    // error here and below
          for i = range arr {     
                  arr[i] = A{}
                  arr[i] = A{a: 4}
                  arr[i] = A{a: 4, b: "bbb"}
                  fmt.Println(i)
          }
  }  

2. Then this happened.
   Here should be an error sign

  arr := make([]a, 5)    // error here and below

3. A minium vimrc

[mostfunkyduck]

I think #3191 covers this, could I get some feedback on that? I'm running a fork locally which I'd rather not do.

@mostfunkyduck
I did a quick check with your branch. The issue was fixed in your branch. Thanks!

Reported fixed year ago with #3191.
