I get the point. I tried to review that vendored library's

OK, almost same(only comment change:
https://github.com/hashicorp/go-cleanhttp/commit/ad28ea4487f05916463e2423a55166280e8254b5),
used from only consul (not prometheus)

Some codes are older than golang-github-hashicorp-consul-dev package

Looks good, Almost same(unnecessary codes were removed and a short
comment is different:
https://github.com/hashicorp/serf/commit/979180d19cb3c60f58fda490533e8e22a21c5aae)

Compability:
Complex, looks hard to replace with golang-github-influxdb-influxdb-dev
package, there are incompatible changes.
