I dislike gnulib-import as with gnulib-import/gnulib, the import
is really on the "gnulib" subdir, and the "gnulib-import" is about
the autoconf wrapping that is _not_ imported, so it feels
backwards to me.

Oh, shucks. Glad I haven't done any renaming yet. :-)
That's two votes for plain "gnulib/gnulib", one against.

Clearly we'll not be able to make everybody happy.
I understood Jan's comment as a suggestion, not an objection, so
I'll take the path of least effort, and get this over with.
