Add the following to your ~/.vim/ftplugin/go.vim (the key here is to use <cfile> not <cword>)
fun! ReadMan()
" Assign current file under cursor to a script variable:
let s:man_word = expand('<cfile>')
:exe ":Godoc " . s:man_word
endfun
" Map the K key to the ReadMan function:
map K :call ReadMan()<CR>
=======UPDATE========
Had a better way for this:
1. Create a file in your ~/bin called godoc.sh with the following content:
#!/bin/sh
fullpkg=`gawk -v "cmd=$1" '
{ FS="/" }
{
if ($NF==cmd || $0 ==cmd){
printf("%s",$0);
exit;
}
}' ~/bin/gopkg-list.txt`
echo -n $fullpkg
2. Create a text file in ~/bin/gopkg-list.txt with the following contents:

3. In your ~/.vim/ftplugin/go.vim, add the following:
fun! ReadMan()
" Assign current file under cursor to a script variable:
let s:man_word = expand('<cword>')
let s:full_word = system('~/bin/godoc.sh '. s:man_word)
:exe ":Godoc " . s:full_word
endfun
" Map the K key to the ReadMan function:
map K :call ReadMan()<CR>
This will take the keyword under cursor, expanded using the shell script, and call :Godoc on it. This takes care of subpackages
