The commit [0] that removed the vendoring was done in September 24th,
and the release of v0.13.5 [1] was done in October 21st.

However the release of v0.13.5 was a backport, and didn't include the
commit that removed the vendoring. Only v0.14.0-rc1 (the current latest
release) onwards that has removed the vendoring.

So the "go-build-system" just worked because all of the dependencies
were already there. Switching to v0.14.0-rc1 should probably break the
build, and require the dependencies to be packaged individually.
