Weird, that Add2 method isn't part of any elliptic.Curve interface I can find. Is it possible you have a modified version of Go or some unclean GOPATH or something? Can you provide more info like the output of go version and go env ? Thanks!

That's a great point actually I forgot I had been building go from source some time ago.

Apologies!
