Just looked at the source: after my Go 1.11 update, Syncthing was updated to use
vendored dependencies, just like go-ipfs. This is why it does not contains any
go ref. From the package declaration:
;; Since the update to Go 1.11, Go programs have been keeping
;; spurious references to all their dependencies:
;; <https://bugs.gnu.org/33620>.
;; For Syncthing, this increases the size of the 'out' closure
;; from 87.6 MiB to 253.5 MiB. So, we use the bundled
;; dependencies until the bug is resolved.
So yup, "guix size" is not happy with Go...
