It won't actually go into any particular Go package, but into
autodep8. The main thing that this needs is to come up with an
idea/strategy how a group of go libraries/packages can be tested in a
generic fashion. Based on my loose comprehension of this bug the
MIR/security's primary concern is to ensure that all reverse build
dependencies of a new Go package still build. A mere package rebuild
test is a trivial thing to synthesize, but maybe there's some other
useful things that can be done, such as running tests (unless the
package build already does that). If that's sufficient for now, we
merely need an algorithm to detect a go library as such.

You can look at /usr/share/autodep8/support/ (detect and generate)
scripts for examples like it's done for Perl.
