this may be my fault.  gschlas is one of these tools that exist at the 
fringe of the suite and don't get much attention; maybe I broke it without 
noticing.  (I guess I should make sure all the tools have tests.)

Does embedding the symbols and saving it under a new name in gschem work?

Then you have the xorn infrastructure available, which comes in really 
handy here.  If embedding the symbols in gschem doesn't work, I can write 
a short script for this.  (If you want to do so yourself, have a look at 
xorn/src/command/convert.py as a starting point.  Most of the script is 
argument processing; the interesting part starts at "gaf.read.read".)
