Batch updating DXF block definitions

We have a software that creates DXF files and gets updated periodically throughout the project.

We need to show these on our dwg sheets, but you cannot xref in a DXF. We insert them as a block, but updating is cumbersome. We need to run "insert" and browse to the updated DXF and force a block redefine.

 

I found this lisp:

However, it doesn't appear to like DXF file either. Does any one have a way to batch update a bunch of DXF files in a single dwg?
