If you do a sourceful NMU, then anyone else who does another NMU
(irrespective of architecture) should use the currently available
source, i.e. the NMU source.
If the real maintainer does an upload ignoring the NMU patches (and the
problem is still there), then immediately jump in and do another NMU
with source. After a given time he'll get the point...
