    Nope.  When looking up C-x, fix_submap_inheritance will end up doing
    the equivalent of (set-keymap-parent .. (lookup-key "\C-x" global-map))
    to the subkeymap built by the second `make-sparse-keymap).

You are right--the bindings in the second submap will be seen, but
they will be seen because they are included thus in the first submap.
When the scan actually reaches the second submap, it should ignore that.
