I'd define special symbols with the desired subcircuit. There is a detailed 
description in the wiki FAQ:
http://geda.seul.org/wiki/geda:faq-gschem#can_my_local_library_cover_frequently_needed_sub_circuits

cite:
   1. Copy the subcircuit to a fresh sheet. (unlock and remove the default 
      title block as you won’t need it)

   2. The values of refdes attributes should end with "?", to allow to 
      auto number them later.

   3. Move the sub circuit to the lower left of the available space. 
      (You can use symbol-translate from the edit menu)

   4. Save the sub circuit as a *.sym file in your local library.

   5. Choose “Include component as individual objects” when selecting 
      this complex symbol for your actual schematic. The whole sub circuit 
      will be pasted to your sheet. Be sure to switch back to the default 
      mode for inclusion of ordinary symbols.

Can you be a bit more specific: Which links are dead? Which circular?

You volunteer to maintain the docs in various formats?

See above.
