Problem executing Golang binaries

I am testing donut using a simple go program:

package main

import (
	"fmt"
	"os"
)

func main() {
	fmt.Println("test")
	f, err := os.Create("test")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	n, err := f.WriteString("test")
	if err != nil {
		panic(err)
	}
	fmt.Println(n)
	f.Close()
}

expected behaviour:
a named "test" is created containing the content "test".

what actually happens:
powershell script hangs for a moment then exits.

additional information:
windows defender is disabled

I would like to add that I'm using the latest donut version from master branch.

I have also tried recreating this example from a previous issue #9 (comment) and does not seem to be working but works otherwise with rundll32.

I am thinking maybe its something wrong with my build environment? What information should I gather to help diagnose the problem.
