vim plugin failing with "Unknown function: job_start"

[ghost]

0. Starting with nvim & OSX
1. Installed plugin with vim-plug; vim-plug reported success
2. Open .go file
3. nvim reports:

Error detected while processing function ABCGo:
line    1:
E117: Unknown function: job_start

It appears this ticket may be relevant.

I am not a vimscript hacker, but this code change seems to fix the issue:

Hi @serussell,
Thank you for the issue! I didn't test it with NeoVim but looks like you're right, Vim has job_start() and NeoVim jobstart(). I'll try NeoVim and fix it soon.
