The other part of my motivation was, I'm not sure the very detailed ChangeLog entries imported from gnulib (eg 2011-01-30, which is 50% of the length of the whole nextstep/ChangeLog) are of much relevance to Emacs; so I think it would be better to keep them more separate, if they are needed at all (as opposed to just, eg, "update from master").
