That documention is incorrect. The language spec assigns no meaning to the 
import path.

The complier assigns the meaning that a compiled package must exists in a 
subdirectory with a name that matches the import part, plus .a, in a path 
provided by the -I flag.

The go tool goes further to interpret the contents of the import path as a URL 
where it will either find a vcs repo or a piece of metadata pointing it to a 
repo.
