But it makes for more maintenance work when a lower-level module changes
that is used by many other modules.

Yes this is normal behaviour in the current state. Until I or you or someone

procedure a developer has to use with gnulib.
Instead of this patch, I'd encourage you to work on "gnulib-tool --import".
