In the past, I took yet another approach: create a patch that contains
all our changes wrt. roundup, then import the current sources (of a
distinct, well-known release) into the tree replacing everything there
is, then apply the patches, checking whether they may be redundant by
now.

There is absolutely no need to mirror the roundup history in our copy,
except that we need to be able to tell what our local changes are.
