You can override gnulib's source code or apply modifications to it, locally to
your package, by using gnulib-tool's --local-dir feature. Of course, you can
also work off a git checkout with modifications of your own.

As I say, that's a downside of gnulib's approach. Changes should be made in gnulib for the benefit of all, not in particular projects.
