Subject: libgo patch committed: add "vendor" to pkgpath for vendored standard packages
Authentication-results: sourceware.org; auth=none

This libgo patch ensures that the packages vendored into the standard
library do not have the same pkgpath as the actual packages.  If we
don't, attempts to build and test the actual packages will get
confused.  The specific error I was seeing was import loops, causing
some of the packages to fail to get initialized, causing an obscure
run time crash.  Bootstrapped and ran Go testsuite on
x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.  Committed to mainline and GCC 7 branch.
