It comes bundled more often than not, but decoupling generally works out
of the box, as it's just linked to as with any library AFAICT:
https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/master/googletest/docs/Primer.md
If it was any other library, or if it wasn't dropped in current git, I
would have gone through the effort of purging it.
