Go ate a big lunch from Java, C and a bit of C++ as a systems' language, which Go was designed as "C sucessor without the C++ bullshit". Even the most modern C (Plan9/9front, not what the ANSI C comitee vomits in every iteration) it's a very different beast.
Still, Common Lisp it's in places where trying to build such kind of software in C/C++ would be a reciper for disasters.
