do you mean protoc fails, or that the C++ compiler fails when compiling the
generated file ?
I'm also using proto files with imports between them and don't have problems
with finding them.
Are you setting the PROTOBUF_IMPORT_DIRS variable ?
What I do have a problem is rerunning protoc automatically on proto-files which
import proto files that have been modified.
How do you handle this ?

can you please use diff -bup ?
This makes the patch easier to read.
