Indeed, the GNU ELPA build scripts will likely fail somewhere with
a foo/bar-NN.MM.el or foo/bar-NN.MM.tar as well, and package.el will
probably burp on those as well.

So, we can have such foo/bar packages bundled with Emacs but we won't be
able to move them out into GNU ELPA, so there's no point having them in
package-builtins.
