I ran into the very same issue with the same set of libs on Arch x86_64:

$ echo go glibc binutils openmpi gcc rdma-core numactl | tr ' ' '\n' | xargs -I{} sh -c 'echo {} $(pacman -Qi {}  | grep Version)' | column -t
go         Version  :  2:1.21.4-1
glibc      Version  :  2.38-7
binutils   Version  :  2.41-3
openmpi    Version  :  4.1.5-5
gcc        Version  :  13.2.1-3
rdma-core  Version  :  44.0-2
numactl    Version  :  2.0.16-1

I was able to work around the issue by using the previous stable version of go, 1.20.11 (from https://go.dev/dl/) instead of 1.21.4.

If you already have go installed, you can use it to grab a different version as described at: https://go.dev/doc/manage-install

I was using the AUR package to build it, so I set GOPATH and GOBIN to point to the 1.20.11 directory, but you should just be able to run go1.20.11 build and have it work.

Good luck!
