Yeah, I've done the same and will have to stop.

I don't think it'll be a problem.  If your rule is "add new typedef
names added by your patch to typedefs.list, keeping them in
alphabetical order" then it doesn't seem very complicated, and
hopefully conflicts between concurrently-developed patches won't
be common.
