If the ferrules themselves are not firmly into the headstock, they will rise up the posts when the strings are fully tensioned.
The solution is adapter bushings. I have a few sets stashed away somewhere.

Thanks for the replies everyone.
The Gotohs should come with a bespoke rod tool. Come removal time, this is inserted from the rear of the headstock. It engages properly with the rim of the bushing. ICBM's "push with scrap wood block" method should suffice.
