Thanks.

I think that is essentially the same as what I wrote with "symlink" in my
last paragraph as a known-to-work workaround.  The real location of the
frotz driver, whether it is in a directory directly in the superproject,
or a separate submodule that is bound to the superproject outside the "os"
submodule, does not make an essential difference, as long as it is outside
"os".

I was asking if people who have used submodules have better solutions than
that "symlink" solution.
