Yeah, that's the trick; I'm not sure.  The best I could come up with was an a
priori list of known common vendorizations.  It would be imperfect for sure,
and maybe a pain to keep up-to-date, but I can't think of anything better
given what we have to work with today.

One of the things I want to add to my mythical PEP are at least declarations
of vendored packages.
