If you want it to be in Debian GIS, a couple more changes are needed. In
debian/control, please set "Debian GIS Project
<pkg-grass-devel@lists.alioth.debian.org>" as Maintainer, and put yourself in
Uploaders field.
Unrelated to Debian GIS: always in debian/control, libgis-doc Recommends
libgis0. I know someone suggested it on this list, but why? Recommends are
installed by default, and that package is meant to provide documentation, so
I'd rather Suggest libgis-dev. That's IMHO though.
Also, you have changes stored in debian/patches/debian-changes-0.4.2-1 . Please
make so that patch doesn't appear. Usually, you want to avoid direct changes to
the upstream source, but rather you want to use quilt(1).
(Tip: that patch creates two autotools-related files. If you want to get rid of
them, add them to debian/clean, and they'll be removed during the clean target)
You have an examples/ directory. Why don't you install them? I'd put it in
debian/libgis-dev.examples .
Also, a symbols file is missing. Did you choose not to include one, or just
forgot it? :-)
To generate one, I'd suggest using (after a "fakeroot debian/rules install"):
$ dpkg-gensymbols -plibgis0 | sed -e 's/0.4.2-1/0.4.2/' | patch -p0
And then move the new_symbols_file to debian/libgis0.symbols.
After compiling it, I see that only a "gis-demo" is present in libgis-bin. I
thought at something more... "useful"? :-)
It might make sense to drop that binary package at all, and put the sources of
this gis-demo in libgis-dev.examples.

Those are generally harmful.
You should check what's actually being linked, and if you're using any function
from those libraries (i.e. check what -l... are being passed to gcc).
This is "only" reflected in the generated dependencies. While it should really
be fixed, it's not a showstopper.
After the installation, trying to run it causes a segfault:
