A solution is to invoke gnulib-tool twice, once for 'base' and once
for 'full', and exclude from 'full' the modules that are already dragged in
for 'base'.
  $ gnulib-tool --source-base=basegllib \
    --import canonicalize ...
  $ gnulib-tool --source-base=fullgllib \
    --avoid=canonicalize ... \
    --import fnmatch-gnu regex ...
