Yeah I don't understand how this is vgo's problem.

In the follup post it shows that they are importing the buggy gRPC version directly: https://codeengineered.com/blog/2018/golang-vgo-broken-dep-t...

So doesn't that mean that they can just file a bug report upstream to get the regression fixed in 1.8.1, and exclude 1.8.0 in the meantime?

I agree. I don't see a vgo issue.

The behavior in the example was broken by a release, but could have as well been restored by a patch release as restoring behaviour would not have broken the API.
