Looks like that's the intended mode of usage for gnulib:
Its components are intended to be shared at the source level, rather
than being a library that gets built, installed, and linked against.
Thus, there is no distribution tarball; the idea is to copy files from
Gnulib into your own source tree.
That does sound like exactly what we need for getting portable
implementations of the few GNU-extension functions we're using here.
So thanks for sharing this.
