I don’t think there’s anything that says a maximum entropy prior is what you get if you construct a maximum entropy prior for a weaker subset of assumptions, and then update based on the complement.
EDIT: Jaynes elaborates on the relationship between Bayes and maximum entropy priors here (warning, pdf).
