So should we file individual bugs, or just tell someone?

I would have thought that at most times a binNMU on a single
architecture would be a harmless thing to do, though at some times
(perhaps now) it might interfere with an automatic migration to
testing.

I've already filed a few individual bugs, for cases that seem
particularly pernicious, but with no effect, so far:

https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=795288
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=797758
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=797761
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=797762

Perhaps they need a better explanation.

Should such bugs be for the misbuilt package, or for
release.debian.org, do you think?
