  As a result, server images for non-amd64 images copy in the go-runner
  amd64 binary instead of the go-runner that matches that architecture.
  

- When using the conformance test image, a new environment variable `E2E_USE_GO_RUNNER` will cause the tests to be run with the new golang-based test runner rather than the current bash wrapper.
