Oberon: The tiniest but richest FOSS HLL and OS you've never heard of
Because of pjmlp's hint I just looked into the repositories https://github.com/btreut/a2 and https://github.com/metacore/A2OS, but didn't find a coroutines module. I'm aware that Active Oberon (Patrik Reali, 2004) includes concurrency, but this is a different language than the one used for System 3.

Much of Go's unusual syntax comes from Oberon-2 (though Robert Griesemer, who worked on Object Oberon). Video timestamp is 17 minutes, 50 seconds.
Some time ago I ported Wirth's Project Oberon compiler to Go, and here's a Project Oberon emulator in Go.

A Discussion of Oberon
If you like Oberon and Go, here are two projects I did last year:
- A port of Peter De Wachter's Project Oberon RISC emulator to Go: https://github.com/fzipp/oberon
- A port of Wirth's Project Oberon RISC compiler to Go: https://github.com/fzipp/oberon-compiler
What are some alternatives?
When comparing a2 and oberon you can also consider the following projects:
OberonSystem - Modified version of the original from http://www.projectoberon.com/ for use with the Oberon IDE
oberon-compiler - N. Wirth's Project Oberon RISC compiler ported to Go.
OfrontPlus - Oberon family of languages to C translator for ARM, x64 and x86 architectures
A2OS - Unofficial mirror of the ETH A2 repository
Oberon - Oberon parser, code model & browser, compiler and IDE with debugger
