For example, godep has been flagged out-of-date on 2018-03-16, yet `pacman -Ss godep` doesn't have an annotation/warning about this, and pacman will still happily install such packages with no interactive warning.
Is this intended behavior? If not, I'm happy to file a report on the tracker.

That's correct, pacman does not include out of date notifications.
Note that in this specific case, the new version only modifies the README, warns people never to use godep anymore, and does some linting: https://github.com/tools/godep/compare/v79...master

Why should it warn about that? The outdated package flag simply notifies the maintainer, that there's a newer version available. From the view of pacman nothing is wrong with the package, and within the ecosystem of the packaging stack that package is still valid.

Thanks everyone, this was all very clarifying.
